'Sahibzada Farhan Ke Liye Length...': Irfan Pathan's Strategy On Air Proves Correct, Moments Before Sahibzada Farhan's Wicket In PAK vs BAN Super 4 Asia Cup 2025 Clash; Video

Former Team India all-rounder Irfan Pathan came up with an accurate assessment on how to dismiss Sahibzada Farhan in the decisive Asia Cup 2025 clash between Pakistan and Bangladesh on Thursday in Dubai. Pathan correctly predicted that Farhan needs to be drawn forward and Taskin Ahmed did precisely to get the better of the opener.

Farhan, who made a fifty against India at the same venue, opened his account with a boundary by playing a backfoot punch. However, Taskin pitched the ball up and the right-hander took the bait by going for a loose drive. He failed to keep it down and Rishad Hossain took a sharp catch at backward point.

Watch the below video as Irfan Pathan commentates before the wicket ball:

"Sahibzada Farhan ke liye woh length thodi aage daalna, woh front foot pe unhein invite karna zaroori hai. Unke stance ke hisaab se." (For Sahibzada Farhan, you need to pitch the ball up. He needs to be invited to the front foot, given the stance.)

Another day, another right prediction from Irfan Pathan ✅ 😎
