Pakistan all-rounder Shadab Khan has taken full responsibility after his side came up short in the Asia Cup 2022 final against Sri Lanka on Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium.
Dasun Shanaka-led Sri Lanka defeated Pakistan by 23 runs on Sunday to win their sixth Asia Cup title. After the loss, Shadab took to Twitter to apologise for the dropped catches in the contest, and said he takes full responsibility for this result. "Catches win matches.
Sorry, I take responsibility for this loss. I let my team down. Positives for team, @iNaseemShah, @HarisRauf14, @mnawaz94 and the entire bowling attack was great. @iMRizwanPak fought hard.
The entire team tried their best. Congratulations to Sri Lanka," tweeted Shadab. It is important to remember that Shadab dropped two catches in the final against Sri Lanka and one eventually went for a six in the backend of the innings.
