Block that noise - Sarfaraz advise to Pakistan ahead of Champions Trophy face-off against India

Karachi, Feb 13 (UNI) ICC Men’s Champions Trophy 2025 Event Ambassador Sarfaraz Ahmed, who was the captain of the Pakistan side that lifted the Champions Trophy in 2017, wants the Men in Green to play intense but smart cricket against arch-rivals India on February 23, when the two sides face-off in Dubai.
“Whenever we meet, it is a special occasion and there is so much hype and pressure around it,” Sarfaraz discussed the importance of India-Pakistan encounters in ICC tournaments.
“But as players, you need to stay calm, try and block that noise out, and just play with the same intensity as you would play Australia or any other team,” he said.
