Before The ODI World Cup 2023, Gavaskar Issued a Strong Warning To India, Saying, “They Have The Most Lethal New-Ball Attack”

In advance of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023, former Indian opener Sunil Gavaskar has issued a strong warning to the Indian team. Before the World Cup, which will begin on October 5 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Gavaskar chose the side with the “most lethal” bowling attack.

Sunil Gavaskar on Pakistan

The former cricketer-turned-commentator believes that Pakistan, whose Babar Azam-led team has surged to the top of the ICC ODI rankings ahead of the Globe Cup, has the strongest new ball assault in the entire globe.

The Asia Cup 2023 has been lit on fire by players like Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, and Shaheen Afridi. They are also the top wicket-takers in the competition; Rauf leads with 9 kills, followed by Naseem with 8 and Shaheen with 7 apiece. The three plagued Indian hitters during the Group A match in Pallekele, reducing Rohit Sharma and Co. to 66/4.

IND vs. PAK on September 10

On September 10, India and Pakistan will square off once more in the Asia Cup’s Super 4 match; if both teams advance to the final, they may encounter each other a third time within a month.

Gavaskar claimed that the Men in Green now have the finest bowling assaults with the new ball, which they previously shared with Australia and Pakistan.

Because Pakistan has always had exceptional new-ball bowlers, at one point, Australia and Pakistan likely shared the top two spots. However, they currently possess the game’s most devastating new-ball attack, according to the illustrious opening.

They combine their left and right arms. They can move the ball swiftly in both directions. Therefore, it’s difficult for any batter to start out aggressively against them, he continued.
