“One shouldn’t make accusations without proof, but as a former cricketer, I talk on the premise of what I see on the sector. The way (MS) Dhoni batted in the final ten overs says lots. He hit one six in the final over, and that is a person well-known for his smooth hitting,” Basit said.
“They do not want Pakistan inside the semi-finals,” he alleged.
Former cricketer Rashid Latif also felt India did no longer try enough to chase the stiff 338-run target.

A former Test player grew to become analyst who didn’t want to be named noted that the hassle commenced while England lost to Sri Lanka.
“Until then, everything was easy. The bottom line is that the broadcasters and sponsors have hundreds of thousands of greenbacks invested inside the match and how can they consider a semi-final without England and India the two pinnacle groups in the world,” he stated.
