Pakistan cricket team were brutally trolled on social media as the Babar Azam side somehow managed to score 147 against India, courtesy of their number 9 batter Shahnawaz Dahani who smacked 16 runs off 6 balls at the end after 18 overs. The batting lineup of Pakistan remained silent as the Men in Blue were on top of them all the time.
All-rounder Hardik Pandya took three crucial wickets in the middle overs while Bhuvneshwar Kumar snared four as India bowled out Pakistan for 147 in their opening Asia Cup match on Sunday (August 28). Pandya ended with figures of 3/25 in 4 overs while opener Mohammed Rizwan was the top-scorer for Pakistan with a sedate 43 off 42 balls. Senior seamer Bhuvneshwar though had the best figures of 4 for 26.
After the first innings of the blockbuster clash, fans couldn't keep calm and trolled the Men in Green for their disappointing performance. Recalling the last match in 2021 World Cup when Pakistan displayed a dominant performance with the bat not giving India a single wicket. Highlight was that skipper Babar Azam, who's currently probably the best batter of all three formats failed to lead his team while batting first.
