T20 World Cup: It Will Be A Good Battle Between Farooqi And Indian Top-order, Says Ian Bishop
Star Sports Press Room: Former West Indies cricketer Ian Bishop believes the match-up between Afghanistan’s left-arm pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi and the Indian top-order will be a good battle during the Super Eight clash of 2024 men’s T20 World Cup at the Kensington Oval on Thursday.
With his skills to move the ball both ways, Farooqi is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament with 12 scalps, seven of which have came in the power-play. His battle against India’s top-order of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant under sunny Barbados skies could prove to be one of the decisive subplots in deciding the India-Afghanistan game.
“If the ball swings, Fazalhaq Farooqi will obviously be a handful when he comes up against any opposition. If it doesn't swing, he's not become impotent, but he loses a little bit of that bite. But I think they'll be able to handle that well.”
