Rashid Latif’s emotional message

Former Pakistani captain Rashid Latif expressed condolences on the demise of Dharmendra. He said, “Dharmendra ji was a legendary hero. A classic film like ‘Sholay’ still lives in our hearts. He was very popular not only in India but also in Pakistan. His legacy will always be remembered.”

Died at the age of 89

89-year-old Dharmendra was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai a few days ago due to difficulty in breathing. He was given ventilator support. After his condition improved, he was sent to his home in Juhu, but he breathed his last on Monday. As soon as the news of his demise spread, the entire film and sports world was immersed in mourning.

Messages from Indian players, end of an era

Indian cricket stars also shared emotional messages on social media remembering Dharmendra. Former opener Virender Sehwag wrote, “Dharmendra ji was not an actor, he was an era. His simplicity, his style and his heart, all were like gold. Generations will remember him.”

Paying tribute, spinner Harbhajan Singh said, “Dharmendra ji’s dignity, strength and his evergreen charm will always be remembered. Both his smile and his cinema will always be alive in our hearts.”

Former opener Shikhar Dhawan wrote in emotional words, “You were big not only in height but also in heart. You proved that strength can also be soft. Om Shanti.”

end of a shining journey

Born in 1935 in Phagwara, Punjab, Dharmendra entered Bollywood in the 1960s through a talent hunt. Soon he became a superstar of every genre, action, romance and comedy. Dharmendra, awarded the Padma Bhushan, showed his talent in films for more than five decades.

Rashid Latif, former captain and wicket-keeper batsman of Pakistan cricket team, has called Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli as India’s Ronaldo and Messi. Latif said that one of these two must be a part of the ODI World Cup 2027.

Speaking to IANS on the possibility of Rohit and Virat playing the next World Cup, Rashid Latif said, “There is still 2026 left. We have to see how many ODI matches are scheduled and how many of them they will play, but senior players must be in the team. ODI cricket is a long format. If not Rohit and Virat, then at least one must be a part of the team. Sometimes you have players available, but they cannot be included in the playing eleven. Jaiswal is not getting a chance, so suddenly someone like KL Rahul deserves a chance. But if it is not possible to include both of them in the playing eleven.

Latif said, “Both Rohit and Virat are excellent players. They can change the course of the match. You see the last ODI against Australia. Coming back after such a long break, both of them led the team to a great victory. In the first two matches, Virat did not do anything special, but showed his class in the third match. Class is forever. Ronaldo is still playing, Messi is also playing. Rohit and Virat are India’s Ronaldo and Messi.”

Rohit and Virat have retired from Test and T20. He plans to play the 2027 ODI World Cup. With this hope in mind, both are playing ODI cricket. Rohit and Virat flopped in the first ODI against Australia. Due to this, questions started being raised about his playing the World Cup. But Rohit scored a half-century in the second ODI and a century in the third ODI. Virat scored a half-century in the third ODI and made a century partnership with Rohit. Seeing the form and fitness of both, their chances of playing in the next World Cup have definitely increased.

Asia cup 2025: In the Asia Cup 2025, the bat of Pakistan’s young opener Sam Ayub is completely silent. Ayub could not even open an account in all three group matches of the tournament. Returned the pavilion against Oman on the very first ball, he was also dismissed against India on Golden Duck and kept playing only two balls in the match against the United Arab Emirates without scoring runs. Three consecutive zero has put his batting in the dock.

However, Ayub’s bowling has been giving some relief. His spin has taken 6 wickets so far, but his frequent failures as an opener have remained a matter of concern for Pakistan. Meanwhile, former Pakistan team captain Rashid Latif has given an interesting statement defending him.

“Sometimes sitting on a camel, the dog bites” – Rashid Latif

Rashid Latif said in a conversation with Revsportz, “Sometimes the player’s time comes that even if he is sitting on a camel, the dog bites.

Latif further said that Ayub is constantly being dismissed in unfortunate ways, sometimes caught out, sometimes shot timing disturbances. He further said, “Every player has bad time. He will boil in a big match. Either it will break or burst.”

How did you get out Sam Ayub?

Oman Match – Faisal Shah caught out on a boom ball.

India match- While playing a shot off Hardik Pandya, Jaspreet Bumrah was caught.

UAE Match – Junaid Siddiqui’s ball caught out at third man.

On all three occasions, both Ayub’s shot selection and luck did not support him.

Pakistan’s entry in Super-4

Despite poor form, Pakistan has made its place in Super-4. Both India and Pakistan teams from Group-A have reached the next phase. Pakistan defeated UAE by 41 runs in their last group match and cut the ticket for Super-4. Now everyone’s eyes are on the India-Pakistan match on September 21, where fans will hope that Sam Ayub’s bat finally broke the silence.

The Indian Players did not come to the ground after defeating Pakistan on Sunday in the Asia Cup 2025. Team India did not join hands with Pakistan players, captain Suryakumar Yadav also did not join hands at the time of the toss. On this, former Pakistan cricketer Rashid Latif Giddad said that he would have warned well. Former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar also gave this response that Salman Ali Aga did not go into the presentation and correct it.

Rashid Latif said in a conversation with the Times of India, “There have been war even before, but we have always joined hands.

What did Rashid Latif say?

In his interview, Sunil Gavaskar talks about Javed Miandad, but he never said that he did not join hands. We represent our respective countries, but I think whatever happened was not right. “

Former captain of Pakistan cricket team Rashid Latif gave a jackal glowing and said, “He would have done war, that too completely. India should have warned, should not be back.”

He further said, “Many political things are happening to hide my mistakes. What happened at the ground level? Personally, I felt very bad.”

Shoaib Akhtar Bhadke

Shoaib Akhtar spoke on PTV sports about Indian players not joining hands with Pakistan players, saying, “Do not make the match political.” However, he congratulated Team India for victory.

Akhtar further said, “We are talking well about you, we can also say.

Let me tell you that Salman Ali did not attend the Aga presentation, because he was angry that Indian players insulted him on the field. There was no one in Pakistan in cricket, Team India dominated the entire match and finally won a big win by 7 wickets. India holds the top in its group (A).

Now India’s next competition in the Asia Cup is going to happen with Pakistan. If we look at the figures in the Asia Cup between India and Pakistan (IND Vs PAK), Team India’s hand is heavy. But every country expects to win from the team. At the same time, this is not the case with Pakistan. The former captain of the team has made such a statement before the match, which seems that he has already accepted the defeat of Pakistan.

’30 years pressure on Pakistan’

Former Pakistan cricket team captain Rashid Latif while talking to PTI on the India-Pakistan match said that ‘we get emotional and more excited and want to do everything at once’. Rashid Latif further said that ‘We are unable to take the match against India much further and this is why Pakistan loses in the match. At the same time, the Indian team always plays the pitch and according to the condition of the match, so India wins’. The former Pak captain further said that ‘Pakistan is under pressure for the last 30 years and India can take advantage of this completely in this Asia Cup’.

Pakistan is afraid of Hardik Pandya

Former Pakistani cricketer Rashid Latif praised Team India’s players and said that ‘Hardik Pandya is a dangerous player. The batsman coming in the middle order and finally the players can turn the match completely. Pandya has done this not once, but many times, that is why Pandya is also called ex-factor ‘.
