After Pakistan's exit from the Asia Cup, S Sreesanth said, "Pakistan are not good enough to reach the finals"
Former Indian cricketer and World Cup winner Sreesanth comments bluntly on the Pakistan cricket team after they failed to qualify for the Asia Cup 2023 final. Babar Azam and co. lost to India by a staggering margin of 228 runs and then again faced defeat, this time to Sri Lanka in a thriller.
The Asia Cup has never seen a final between India and Pakistan. This seemed to be changing when Pakistan posted a target of 252 against Sri Lanka in 42 overs. However, the Men in Green couldn't handle their nerves under pressure and lost the final ball against the Lankans.
Speaking to Sportskeeda, Sreesanth called Pakistan 'chokers' and felt they weren't good enough to make it to the final. He said, "It won't happen anytime soon." Pakistan is not good enough to reach the finals. They are like South Africa. They choke in finals."
He further said, "It is going to be an extremely good final. I expect captain Rohit Sharma to win the game for India in the final."
