Sehwag takes a jibe at ACC for canceling India-Pakistan match
Due to rain between India vs Pakistan (IND vs PAK), the great match has been canceled, after which the Asian Cricket Council ie ACC has faced a lot of criticism. Pakistan Cricket Board chief Najam Sethi was the first to take a jibe at the ACC. However, after this, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag has lashed out at the ACC after the blockbuster match between India vs Pakistan was ruined.
Virender Sehwag criticized the ACC on Twitter of social media and wrote that “Man keeps tea and pakoras during rains. Also kept the Asia Cup”. Sehwag has expressed his displeasure over the cancellation of the match between India vs Pakistan due to rain. The India vs Pakistan match has been called off even before the start of the second innings. The entire 50 overs of the first innings were played in the match. But not a single ball of the second innings has been played.
Najam Sethi also took a dig at ACC
Najam Sethi wrote on the Twitter account of social media that “How disappointing! Rain spoiled the biggest match of cricket. But it was predictable. As PCB Chairman, I urged ACC to play in UAE but poor excuses were made to accommodate Sri Lanka. He said, it is very hot in Dubai. But it was just as hot the last time the Asia Cup was played there in September 2022 or when the IPL was played there in April 2014 and September 2020. Politics on Sports”.
Match canceled after one innings
In the India vs Pakistan match, Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bat first. During this rain came and the match was stopped, but after that the match was played again. This happened about twice. But Team India played its overs. However, the team was restricted to only 266 runs in 48.5 overs. With this, the rain came again after the end of an innings, after which it stopped raining, but as soon as the covers started to be removed, it rained again. After that the umpires waited a long time and later decided to call off the match.
