Irfan Pathan Showed Mirror To Trolls From Pakistan After The Second IND vs AUS ODI

IND vs AUS: In a rain-interrupted second ODI clash between India and Australia, the cricketing world witnessed a spectacle as India triumphed over Australia by a staggering 99 runs. This resounding victory allowed India to secure an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. What made this victory even more remarkable was India’s stellar batting performance, with centuries from Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer.

The Indian team, after being asked to bat first, displayed an extraordinary show of strength with the bat. They piled up a formidable total of 399 runs, leaving the Australian side in a daunting position right from the start. Leading the charge in the first two games of the series, KL Rahul showcased his class by scoring 52 off just 38 balls. Ishan Kishan, another emerging talent, contributed a blistering 18-ball 31, while Suryakumar Yadav played a scintillating innings, reaching his half-century in just 24 deliveries and ultimately notching up 72 runs off 37 balls.

Australia, on the other hand, faced an uphill battle as they attempted to chase down the imposing target set by the Indian team. However, the rain gods had their say, leading to a revised target of 317 runs in 33 overs due to the day’s second rain interruption. Despite their best efforts, the Australian team struggled and was ultimately bowled out for 217 runs in 28.2 overs.

While cricket fans from around the world were engrossed in the thrilling encounter, some Pakistani fans took to social media to troll India’s performance. Their contention was that India’s impressive run tally was solely due to the pitch being flat and the boundary size being relatively small. This criticism sparked a response from former Indian cricketer, Irfan Pathan, who didn’t hold back in defending India’s performance.

Irfan Pathan took to Twitter and posted a thought-provoking question, “So the pitch was flat and the ground was small only for one batting team???”. This rhetorical question shed light on the fact that India managed to score a whopping 399 runs on the same pitch whereas Australia could only muster 217. Pathan’s tweet not only silenced the critics but also highlighted the exceptional batting prowess displayed by the Indian team.

Irfan Pathan’s response underlined a fundamental truth about cricket – it’s a game where skill, strategy, and execution matter just as much, if not more, than the conditions. While pitch and ground size can have an impact, it’s ultimately the players’ abilities that determine the outcome of a match.

The centuries by Shubman Gill and Shreyas Gill exemplified the highest level of skill and technique. These young talents showcased their ability to adapt to the conditions and seize the moment. KL Rahul’s innings, filled with classy shots, demonstrated that a true cricketer can excel in any situation. Ishan Kishan’s fearless approach and Suryakumar Yadav’s quickfire half-century displayed their confidence and composure under pressure.

It’s also worth noting that India’s bowlers, with their accurate line and length, played a crucial role in restricting Australia’s batting lineup. They exploited the conditions effectively and took wickets at regular intervals, making the task even more daunting for the Australians.
