Therefore, many cricket pundits are also busy in sharing their favorites for the tournament while reflecting on strengths and weaknesses of the participating teams. The same is true for former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif who also jumped on this bandwagon. Reflecting on the upcoming cricket bonanza, the cricketer turned analyst added that he is expecting either Pakistan or India to win this tournament. Rashid isnrsquot ready to take any team lightly, but feels that the aforementioned Asian giants have most of the bases covered for the competition.nbsp In particular, he added that he has high hopes from the green team. Furthermore, the presence of cricketers like Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan and Shaheen Afridi in the Pakistani unit allows him to root for Pakistan to gain the status of Asian champions.nbsp ldquoI am really hopeful for Pakistan to win the Asia Cup 2022. Beating India in the recent T20 World Cup has increased expectations from the green team. I think that all the teams are competitive, but I feel that the main competition would be between India and Pakistan for the title,rdquo said by Rashid, who has played 37 Tests and 162 ODIs for Pakistan.
