Hindustan Times  

A blockbuster Sunday awaits for world cricket as arch-rivals India and Pakistan will once again be up against each other in international cricket, this time in the 2022 Asia Cup. Ahead of the big match, former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi was asked to give his verdict on the match results and his answer was an unexpected one. Shahid Afridi on India vs Pakistan During a Q&A session with his fans on Twitter on Sunday, Afridi was asked on various topics ranging from Shaheen Afridi's injury to Virat Kohli's form and his future plans as well. One would have expected Afridi to respond with a one-word tweet by showing support to the Babar-led side, but he instead replied saying, “Depends on who makes the least mistakes.” India had lost their last meeting with Pakistan which was in their 2021 T20 World Cup opener in Dubai. Pakistan will however be without Shaheen in the Asia Cup tournament owing to a knee injury while India will be without Jasprit Bumrah, who suffered a back spasm.
