Legendary Pakistan pacer Wasim Akram needs to improve his line and length in ODI cricket if Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf is to pick up wickets in the ongoing ODI World Cup I feel that. The 29-year-old has endured tough performances in the main events so far, but he failed to make an impression on his Pakistan team.
Team India’s resounding victory was led by team captain Rohit Sharma who gave a decisive performance for the Men in Blue in the main match. Pakistan’s fast Haris Rauf was the unwavering center of attention of Rohit Sharma as he outperformed almost all Pakistan’s bowlers, smashing boundaries and scoring flying sixes during his innings.
“Speaking of Haris Rauf, there is nothing against him as he has been Pakistan’s main bowler. He takes wickets only when the batsmen are chasing him. I think. I have never seen him swing the ball and pick wickets like Bumrah did today. He has pace but needs to improve his length for one-day cricket. ” said Wasim Akram.
Rohit Sharma led the home team with the bat, scoring 86 (63) runs to win the match. Some of his shots were really great to watch at the festival in Ahmedabad, such as the short throws he sent into the stands.

Wasim Akram said that Haris Rauf did not bowl Rohit Sharma, a real bouncer, during the match because he was bowling mainly at waist height and that Indian captain claimed that it was easy to send it to the stand inAhmedabad.
“Rauf was not a bowling bouncer for Rohit. They needed to hit a proper rebound as Rohit would have pulled and grabbed the leading edge and caught it at fine leg or square leg. Yes. Rauf bowled at waist height and Rohit knew where to send the ball,” Wasim Akram added.
While the Men in Green’s bowlers kept bowling bouncers to disrupt Rohit Sharma’s rhythm, Pakistan’s bowlers seemed oblivious to the strength of India’s openers, while not giving up shots. Known for his exceptional timing and control when batting, Rohit grasps the situation and makes the most of it, giving his team quick runs in the powerplay overs.
