New Delhi. Former Indian fast bowler Yograj Singh has issued a strict warning between the controversy between India and Pakistan during the Asia Cup Super Four match. In this match, there was a gully on the ground between Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi and Sahibzada Farhan. The controversy on the ground began when Pakistan’s fast bowlers targeted India’s youth openers Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill for a verbal attacks. Indian batsmen also responded on the field and fierce reactions started outside the field.
67 -year -old Yograj used a threatening language, making his feelings clear. He said that this incident crossed the border. While defending the Indian youth, he raised a finger on Pakistan’s fast bowlers and asked why the abuse started. He said, “Both the players were playing. They were not saying anything to anyone. So, the players (Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf) went and started abusing them. Neither Abhishek said anything, nor Shubman. So what is it? It is not disappointed; what is this?”
Yograj’s comments have already set more on the stressful rivalry. Especially before the Asia Cup final, which will be played between India and Pakistan on Sunday. Emotions have been in spate during the tournament and recent events have attracted criticism and attention from former players and fans.
It is clear from Yograj’s comments that how closely the events on the field are criticized. How oral attacks and sledging can turn into large controversies. The defending Indian batsmen and their sharp threats have already become a topic of discussion on social media.
A day before the final, it is difficult to say that more oral attacks, provocative gestures and anger will not boil, as both teams will put their full strength to win the Asia Cup 2025 Trophy. However, India will try to answer with its game on the field, like the Super Four match, and will let cricket speak.
