Former Pakistan captain calls Virat ‘selfish’, angers veteran cricketer

New Delhi. In World Cup 2023, Virat Kohli’s bat is ‘roaring’ loudly in every match. Virat scored an unbeaten century in the match against South Africa (India vs South Africa) and equaled the record of 49 ODI centuries held by the great Sachin Tendulkar. Cricket luminaries around the world have been lauding Virat’s century and achievement on a wicket that is difficult to bat on, but former Pakistan captain Mohammad Hafeez saw Virat’s ‘selfish approach’ in this innings.

Hafeez, popularly known as ‘Professor’, believes that after approaching his century, Virat increased the score by taking singles instead of fours in the last moments of the Indian innings, which showed his selfish nature rather than playing in his interest. team. is

‘No player can play spin better than him..’ Kaif said about which player?

Hafeez may have forgotten that Virat held one end on a difficult wicket and ensured that Team India reached a score above 300. Not only that, he took a single to open up Shreyas Iyer and Ravindra Jadeja at the other end, who quickly added to the score.

When Ganguly reached the field 6 minutes late, the umpire did not give him out.

Former England batsman and captain Michael Vaughan slammed Hafeez for the statement and termed his statement as ‘nonsense’. Vaughan wrote in his post on the social site that India played great cricket and defeated 8 teams. Virat Kohli now has 49 centuries to his name. Acted as an anchor for his last innings batting on a difficult pitch. Not only that, his team won by over 200 runs!!! This is absolute nonsense.

Let us tell you that, while commenting on Virat’s century innings, Hafeez said in a Pakistani TV show, ‘I saw a sense of selfishness in Virat’s batting. He was trying to complete his century with a run in the 49th over and didn’t put his team on top. The former Pakistan cricketer further said that even Rohit Sharma could have played this kind of ‘selfish’ cricket but he didn’t. The reason was that he did not play ‘for himself’ but for Team India.
