What did Shahid Afridi say about the Indian Cricket Team?
Shahid Afridi was left impressed by India's display against England in a difficult pitch in Lucknow. Batting first, India posted a total of 229, with Rohit Sharma scoring 87. England were bundled up for 129 in under 35 overs, as Mohammed Shami picked up a 4-fer.
Afridi, in his Tweet, mentioned that the Indian team focussed on their strengths to get the better of England and hailed them as favourites to lift the trophy this time.
Indian team looks solid and even when things crumble they know how to focus on their strengths. Winning 6/6 at the biggest stage is above and beyond home conditions. It’s a testimony of focused physical work and mental strength, favourites for that reason.
