“Typical Pakistan”, people troll Pakistan Fielders for dropping catches, in the India Vs Pakistan clash in Asia Cup 2023.
In the Super 4 fixture of the Asia Cup 2023, which took place on Sunday, September 10, at the R.Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, India and Pakistan faced off in an electrifying encounter. The match began with India being put in to bat first, and their opening pair of Shubman Gill and Rohit Sharma set the stage on fire, putting up an impressive 121-run partnership for the first wicket.
However, it wasn’t just the brilliant batting that made headlines during this match. Pakistan’s fielding had its share of ups and downs, with a couple of crucial chances being missed by their fielders. During the second over of the game, Shaheen Afridi had an opportunity to dismiss Shubman Gill at third man but failed to hold on to the catch.
Another fortunate escape for Gill occurred in the eighth over when he edged a delivery by Naseem Shah. Astonishingly, the ball managed to find the gap between the slip fielders, Iftikhar Ahmed and his counterpart, who both hesitated in going for the catch. This particular moment, where the ball eluded the slip fielders, has garnered significant attention on various social media platforms, becoming a topic of discussion among cricket enthusiasts.
