Shoaib Akhtar responds to Chappell's comments on Pakistan


Former Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar took to Twitter to respond to former Australian captain Ian Chappell’s comments about Pakistan’s poor performances
Down Under this winter.
The team lost the Test series 3-0, following which Chappell mentioned that Cricket Australia might want to stop inviting Pakistan to play Test cricket on Australian soil.

“Pakistan have now lost 12 Test matches on the trot in Australia, and somebody’s got to give them a kick up the bum. Cricket Australia have got to start saying ‘listen if things don’t improve, we will stop with the invites’,” said Chappell.
Akhtar responded by stating that just because a team is not winning matches doesn’t mean that they have to stop playing.
He cited England’s performances in the ODI World Cups as an example.

It was a tough chance, but a costly one. Warner went on to make 179, his career-best knock in ODIs. Warner was dropped again, though by this time he already had 130. And this time it was a sitter. Warner skied the ball off Hasan Ali and Amir, running in from long-on, positioned himself perfectly under the ball, only to have it spill straight through his fingers. It was less costly than Azhar's miss, although Warner still added almost 50 more runs from that point. Straight after Amir's blunder, the TV cameras cut to Pakistan coach Mickey Arthur and fielding mentor Steve Rixon. Heads were in hands, faces were long, and no words were being spoken.
