[WATCH] India vs Pakistan Super 4 clash in Asia Cup 2025 was fixed? Former Pakistan captain makes jaw-dropping statement

The former Pakistan wicket-keeper batter, Rashid Latif, has made a shocking statement on the Super 4 clash between India and Pakistan at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, which the latter went on to lose by four wickets. It was the second meeting between the two teams after India earned a seven-wicket win in the group stage.

Pakistan put a decent score on the board in the Super 4 clash, thanks to the half-century from Sahibzada Farhan, while Faheem Ashraf clubbed a fine knock of 20 runs in eight runs to cross the 170-run mark in the first inning. However, Rashid Latif felt that the clash was fixed.

“They have moved quite forward. We are nothing. 90s boys were nowhere near what these players are. One team is not catching, and the other is not hitting aerial due to the fear of being caught. Your main bowler is not bowling. Out of 7-8 overs, Saim Ayub bowled three.” Latif expressed in an interview as the video went viral.

India made a solid chase in the game, thanks to the 104-run opening partnership between Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma. The latter clubbed a fine and aggressive half-century to complete the chase. But Latif’s statement has grown controversial as he questioned the Pakistan batters' slowing down deliberately in the second half of the inning.

“Pakistan was batting so well, how did it suddenly turn bad? You didn’t even try to be aggressive. They gave up. Why didn’t they try to attack in the middle overs? I don’t know. Sahibzada Farhan and Hussain Talat had a 17-run partnership in 17 balls. Farhan scored 5 off 6 deliveries, and Talat made 10 off 11.” Rashid Latif expressed.

“At that point, Pakistan was in control. You should have gone for your shots, even if you got out. Then Mohammad Nawaz came, and he too played slowly, never trying to accelerate the scoring rate. That’s why I don’t trust their batting or bowling.” Latif addressed this in the same video.
