India and Pakistan will face each other in the Asia Cup final for the first time. The two teams have previously clashed twice in the current tournament, with India defeating its arch-rival on both occasions. There's no doubt that the Indian team will enter the title clash as a strong contender, but legendary Pakistani fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has advised his team on their strategy against India.
Pakistan reached the final by defeating Bangladesh
Pakistan qualified for the final by defeating Bangladesh in the Super Four stage. Pakistan's batting performance was poor, but the team managed to reach the final thanks to its bowling. Akhtar is fully aware of the Indian team's dominance, so he has urged the Pakistani players to change their mindset and end India's dominance.
Akhtar urged the players to change their mindset.
"Get out of this mindset. Put aside their dominance. Just break their dominance," Akhtar said during an event. Just play with the same mindset you showed in the match against Bangladesh. You need a similar mindset. You don't need to bowl 20 overs; you just need to take wickets.
"Pakistan should focus on Abhishek."
Akhtar wants Pakistan to focus on Abhishek Sharma, who has been in great form in the tournament. Akhtar believes that if Abhishek gets out early, Pakistan can dominate the final match. He said, "Mark my words, if Abhishek Sharma gets out in the first two overs, the team will be in trouble. With the start they are getting, if Abhishek gets out early, they will struggle. It's not that Abhishek won't mistime the ball. He will. You just have to try your best. If you play hard, India will realize that we will have to work hard to score runs."
Akhtar said, "I know Gautam Gambhir. He tells his team that they have to play their best against Pakistan." Pakistan will play the worst cricket, select the worst team, but once they reach the final, they will play their best cricket and win. This has happened to us many times.
