Now former Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi has not been able to stop himself from praising the Indian squad.

India has great …

While discussing a Pakistani channel, Shahid Afridi specially praised the Indian all -rounder players. He said, “To be honest, India has 3 best all -rounders. Nowadays there is very little look in the teams where there are three magnificent all -rounders players.”

Shahid Afridi is talking about Hardik Pandya, Akshar Patel and Shivam Dubey here. Afridi said that being such a magnificent all -rounder makes it easy for the team to create a combination and take decisions for the captain. Pakistan’s legendary cricketer further said in the praise of the Indian squad that the playing of all -rounders in the playing XI has a huge impact on the match.

Former Pak team captain Shahid Afridi further said, “All -rounder players never let us know that there is a burden on the team. They are real packages, because often all -rounder matches also work as winners.”
