In a video on his YouTube channel, Shehzad claimed that Pakistan’s bubble had burst before Champions Trophy. He called Rizwan brainless for opting to bat first in the contest, adding that it was a mind-boggling decision. Further, he accused the Pakistan captain of always saving the batting.
“It was a mind-boggling decision (to bat first) because we had seen in the previous match that the pitch becomes better to bat on in the night, the ball doesn’t grip on the surface for the spinners. Still, the Pakistan team decided to bat first. Brainless decision, they had no clue,” said Shehzad.
