AFRIDI BLAMES BATTING
Captain Shahid Afridi has said that Pakistan’s batting is a cause for their poor World Cup.
Pakistan, bowled out for a paltry 184, were indebted to Afridi’s one-man show, whose leg-breaks earned figures of 5-23 and helped his team avoid the kind of upset they suffered against Ireland in the Caribbean four years ago. I wish I’d had a free bet on it!
