A three-match ODI series is being played between Pakistan and Afghanistan before the Asia Cup 2023. This series is happening in Sri Lanka, whose first match was played in Hambantota. In the first ODI, Pakistan won by 142 runs. But due to poor fielding in this match, the Pakistan cricket team is becoming a joke.
The video of Pakistan’s poor fielding is going viral very fast on social media. Pakistan cricket team has always seen such fielding, which was made fun of and this time, Fakhar Zaman and wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan presented a display of poor fielding. Left-handed batsman Ikram wanted to run away on the fifth ball of the fourth over from Afghanistan, chasing runs.
But after running more than half the crease, Gurbaz, who was at the non-striker’s end, refused to let Ikram run after seeing the ball in the fielder’s hand. Ikram ran to go back. Meanwhile, Fakhar Zaman, with the ball in his hand, was also very close to the wicket. Fakhar first ran, tried to throw from a distance, and missed the throw.
After this, wicketkeeper Rizwan once again tried to run out but failed. In this way, Pakistan’s fielders left a very easy runout. Fans commented on this viral video in a very funny way.
Pakistan!
