“Teams like New Zealand, South Africa should be banned if…”, Ex-PAK star supports Team India on this matter

Teams like New Zealand and South Africa should be banned for their actions if it violates the spirit of the game, a sentiment echoed by former Pakistan cricketer in support of Team India.

Team India last won an ICC Trophy almost 10 years ago in 2013 when they lifted the Champions Trophy under the leadership of MS Dhoni. They defeated England in the final by a very close margin. Since then, it has been heartbreak on numerous occasions for the team despite coming pretty close to achieving the honors.

This has been a topic of discussion for many ‘Cricket Experts’ who miss no chance in questioning the relevance of the richest cricket board BCCI and its teams.

However, speaking on the matter, former Pakistan cricketer Kamran Akmal called India a great side and also lauded the performances by them.

Team South Africa

“People talk about India having not won an ICC event for 10 years. You can’t win every ICC event. And if winning an ICC trophy is the only criterion then teams like New Zealand and South Africa should be banned since they haven’t won any. So this is just a pick. India is a world-class team and is playing at a different level,” said Akmal on Paktv.tv.

Team India

Team India now has two main goals in front of them. First, winning the WTC after qualifying by defeating Australia in the home Test series by a good margin, and second, winning CWC 2023 which will be played in India.
