Former India’s opener Akash Chopra and ex-England captain Michael Vaughan criticised Pakistan team very harshly, after their defeat to Bangladesh in opening Test of the series. The Pakistan team faced a shocking loss to Bangladeshi team in the first Test at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. By the first four days, the match was looking like it would end up in a draw. But on the final day, Bangladesh spinners turned the game and grabbed a victory from Pakistan team, which boosted their position in the Points Table of the ICC World test Championship.
After the match, Aakash Chopra went on to X in order to mock the hosts. He commented in a sarcastic way that it’s rare for a team to lose after declaring their first innings with more than 400 runs and four wickets remaining.
Not many teams go to lose a Test match after declaring their first innings with 400+ runs and 4 wickets to spare. At Home.
Pakistan cricket is a gift that keeps giving 🙌— Aakash Chopra (@cricketaakash) August 25, 2024
Meanwhile, Vaughan also criticised the Pakistan team. He praised Bangladesh for their impressive victory over the hosts.
