It is challenging to bowl against Rohit Sharma: Shaheen Afridi

On Saturday, October 14, in Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium, India and Pakistan will square off in one of the ODI World Cup 2023’s most eagerly anticipated matches. There will be more conflicts to anticipate as India and Pakistan engage in combat as the conflict draws closer.

In particular, the matchup between star Pakistani pacer Shaheen Afridi and Indian captain Rohit Sharma has been discussed for a while.

In relation to this, Shaheen Afridi spoke up to praise the Indian captain and claim that he is one of the hardest hitters to bowl against. Afridi also said that Rohit’s early dismissal may be a useful strategy for applying pressure to the Indian team.

“Rohit Sharma has amassed a sizable number of runs for India and is a challenging batter to bowl against. The guys who come after the captain face a lot of pressure if they are let go early, Afridi stated in a video posted by Star Sports.

“He is the main player, and the idea will be to dismiss him and put the team under pressure,” he stated.

Both Pakistan and India want to keep winning.

Both sides will be motivated to do well against their bitter rivals as the match between India and Pakistan approaches. India has faced Australia and Afghanistan in its two games thus far in the league.

Notably, the team captained by Rohit Sharma outperformed both of its opponents and is currently undefeated in the league. Pakistan, on the other hand, has defeated both the Netherlands and Sri Lanka in their encounters. It could be intriguing to witness whether team suffers its first ODI World Cup 2023 defeat in this legendary rivalry.
