Aaqib Javed’s comments drew the ire of Indian fans, who slammed the former Pakistan fast bowler for his remarks after they were posted on social media by a Pakistan journalist.
Former Pakistan pacer and coach Aaqib Javed raised a big storm on social media when he said that the Pakistan Super League (PSL) was superior to the Indian Premier League (IPL). Javed believes that IPL is inferior to Pakistan’s T20 League as it features ‘low-quality bowling’.
“This (PSL) is the most interesting league in the world, if there are no interruptions due to COVID-19 or anything else, because of the nature of the pitches. For instance, Lahore’s pitch has some support for the bowlers, whereas you see higher scores in Karachi,” Samaa TV had quoted Javed as speaking to PTV Sports. “On the other hand. If you look at IPL, there is only one type of cricket being played there due to extremely flat surfaces and low-quality bowling.”
