Shafiq Stanikzai speaks on Asif Ali incident in Asia Cup 2022

One such statement on the incident was given by former ACB CEO Shafiq Stanikzai. He said, “This is stupidity at the extreme level by Asif Ali and should be banned from the rest of the tournament, any bowler has the right to celebrate but being physical is not acceptable at all.”

Commenting on the same, Shoaib Akhtar said, “Afghan players put right back into their place by 19-year-old kid Naseem Shah. An unforgettable match against people we have loved & supported always. Lekin bat tamizi aur arrogance nay un no foran neecha dikhaya.”

The match ended up in the favour of Pakistan but the aggressive behaviour wasn’t just limited to the game. However, after the game, Afghanistan fans were seen vandalizing the stadium. They verbally abused and threw chairs at others present in the stadium. Afghanistan and India’s Asia Cup comes to an end and the two teams will lock horns in their final game.
