New Delhi, March 31: Former captain Imran Khan today lashed out at Pakistan players for their “terrible” work in the field and said that a team cannot afford to win a match by dropping a player like Sachin Tendulkar four times.
Pakistan dropped Tendulkar four times, allowing the champion batsman to play a knock of 85, which helped India eke out a 29-run win over the arch-rivals in the semi-final of the World Cup in Mohali today.
“No team deserves to win the way Pakistan fielded,” Imran said.

Billed as the match to watch out for in the ongoing quadrennial extravaganza, the legendary all-rounder said that players from both sides felt the pressure.
“This was the ultimate pressure game.
