At least try losing properly: Pak anchor roasts team after India T20 thrashing
India Today
India secured a dominant 61-run win over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup clash. The defeat sparked fierce criticism of Pakistan's players, management, and cricket board leadership.
India’s emphatic victory over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup clash on Sunday has triggered sharp criticism for Pak team, with former cricketers, fans and commentators lashing out at the team over yet another disappointing performance against their arch-rival in cricket. Adding to the backlash, Pakistani journalist Huda Shah delivered a scathing assessment of the Salman Agha-led side, describing the defeat as “the height of shamelessness,” blaming it on “useless players,” and questioning the team’s preparation.
India defeated Pakistan by 61 runs -- India posted 175/7 and then bundled out Pakistan for 114-- in the match which was played after initial boycott by Pakistan over the decision to remove Bangladesh’s Mustafizur Rahman from Kolkata Knight Riders’s IPL squad.
“This is the height of shamelessness,” Huda Shah said in a video posted on social media. “You were going to lose, but you could have at least chased a little, you could have worked a bit harder”.

“What did they even practice? Certainly not batting. There was so much news about batting practice done, bowling practice done, fielding practice done. But what exactly did you practice?” she asked.
