'He said, bowlers like me are found in every street of Pakistan...': Ex-India star's sensational on-air reply to Miandad

Hindustan Times  

The India-Pakistan cricket rivalry is one of the most storied and intense clashes in the sport. Former Indian bowler Irfan Pathan reminisced about one such tour during a pre-match show on Star Sports on Saturday, as he recalled a controversial statement made by former Pakistan coach Javed Miandad ahead of the 2004 tour of Pakistan. Miandad had commented that bowlers like Irfan could be found on every street in Pakistan, sparking a furor among Indian fans. He said, ‘bowlers like Irfan are found in every street of Pakistan’. It's worth noting that Pakistan emerged victorious in two out of the four T20I encounters against India since their last ODI World Cup meeting in 2019.
