An error from the broadcasters left Pakistan legend Wasim Akram fuming ahead of the the Asia Cup clash between India and Pakistan in Dubai on Sunday. Former Pakistan captain Akram, who is working as a presenter for the tournament, was stumped when the playing XI presented to him by the broadcasters after the toss did not include pacer Shahnawaz Dahani. Akram said he had spoken to Pakistan batting coach Mohammad Yousuf and he had told him that Dahani was going to play.
The blockbuster India vs Pakistan match in the Asia Cup 2022 is about to get underway in Dubai. India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to bowl and also announced a big decision about the playing XI as veteran Dinesh Karthik was picked over Rishabh Pant in the playing XI. Ahead of the start of the match, former India captain Virat Kohli shared a warm moment with former Pakistan captain and bowling legend Wasim Akram.
Egypt's Seif Ahmed is currently the acting president of FIH following Narinder Batra's resignation from the top post last month. Batra, who became FIH president in 2016, resigned last month and also quit as Indian Olympic Association (IOA) chief.
India and Pakistan have played several thrilling encounters but the one that remains etched in the memory of fans the most is the last ball thriller in the Australasia Cup final in 1986, when Javen Miandad took Pakistan to an improbable win in Sharjah, hitting Indian pacer Chetan Sharma for a six off the last delivery.
The India vs Pakistan rivalry has been one of cricket's most enthralling contests over the years and legends from both the countries have shared several anecdotes about their experience of not just playing in the high pressure contest but also of touring either country. As the current crop of players get ready to battle in the upcoming Asia Cup, with the two teams clashing on August 28, broadcaster Star Sports shared a clip of a show Frenemies, where legendary fast bowlers Kapil Dev and Wasim Akram shared their memories of classic India vs Pakistan matches.
Ahead of the blockbuster clash between the arch-rivals, former Pakistan skipper and legendary pacer Wasim Akram said that star Indian batter Suryakumar Yadav will be crucial for the team and have the potential to hurt Pakistan in the Asia Cup. In 23 T20I matches, Suryakumar has smashed 672 runs at an average of 37.33 with five fifties and a very recent hundred - 117 in a closely-fought match against England at The Oval. India will be starting its Asia Cup campaign with a high-octane clash against Pakistan on August 28.
Virat Kohli has struggled for runs over the past two years but Pakistan legend Wasim Akram feels the former India captain remains one of the all-time greats and comparing Babar Azam with him is still a bit premature. All eyes will be on Kohli when India meet Pakistan in their Asia Cup opener in Dubai on Sunday. Kohli will come into the match with a fresh mind having taken a break for the away series against the West Indies. While Kohli has gone through an extended lean patch with no hundred since November 2019, the much younger Babar seems to be at the peak of his powers and doing well across formats. "First of all let me start by saying that criticism from Indian fans against Kohli has been unnecessary. He is one of the greatest of all times not just this era. He still fit as a fiddle. He is still one of the best fielders in the Indian squad. "As they say class is forever and that is Virat Kohli. Hope he doesn't come back to form against Pakistan but he will come back eventually," said Akram in a press conference organised by Star Sports, the official broadcaster for Asia Cup.
