IND vs PAK: Gautam Gambhir told which team has the best fast bowling attack– Former India batsman Gautam Gambhir feels that Pakistan has the best fast bowling line-up in the ongoing T20 World Cup. India is set to take on Pakistan in their opening match of the tournament on Sunday, 23 October. Gambhir feels that Pakistan’s fast bowlers can trouble India’s batsmen with their pace.
Gautam Gambhir said that Shaheen Afridi has recovered from a knee injury for Pakistan. He is back to full fitness. On the other hand, Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah have been in good form for some time now. Gambhir compared the bowling attack of other teams and said that Pakistan has no shortage of pace in their bowling line-up.
Pakistan has three fast bowlers
He said, “Pakistan has the best bowlers among all the teams in this T20 World Cup. Especially fast bowlers. If you look at Australia, they have only one bowler who can bowl at more than 140 kmph. For England, Mark Wood can bowl at a speed of more than 150 kmph. But for Pakistan, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, and Naseem Shah can all bowl at over 140 pace. Fast bowling is his strength.”
Batting is Pakistan’s weakness
However, Gambhir also said that “Pakistan has limited options in batting. Their batting line-up is their weakness. They don’t have a great power-hitter and are weak against short-pitched bowling. If Babar Azam gets out early then the Indian team can dominate Pakistan. Also, the grounds are big, so hitting boundaries will not be easy for them.”
