Pakistan need to fight hard with ball, says Shahid Afridi after 2nd ODI defeat against Australia.
KARACHI (Dunya News) – Former Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi said the Green Shirts need to fight hard with the ball after losing second consecutive one-day international (ODI) against Australia.
Afridi took to Twitter and congratulated Haris Sohail and Mohammad Rizwan on their first ODI centuries. It is important to break Australia’s momentum, and the bench strength needs to perform especially the bowlers, he wrote.
