Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan has conceded that his team’s Champions Trophy campaign is as good as over following the loss to India here.
The six-wicket defeat to India was Pakistan’s second in as many games. From Group A, India and New Zealand are expected to reach the semifinals. Pakistan’s last league game is against Bangladesh on February 27.
“We can say that our campaign is as good as over. We have to depend on results of other matches. There is hope as there is one more game left. As a captain, I don’t like this scenario (depending on other teams). We should have our fate in our hands,” said Rizwan at the post-match press conference.
He gave due credit to India and especially Virat Kohli, who completed his 51st ODI hundred and his fourth against the arch-rivals.
