IND vs PAK | Twitter, Kohli, and Rohit in splits as furious Babar rebukes Shaheen over comical Pakistan mix-up

Winning the toss and electing to field first went well with the Pakistan unit as the pacers kept their composure amidst incessant rain interruptions. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were sent packing halfway through the powerplay and Rishabh Pant’s 43 was spoiled by the lower middle order as Naseem Shah, Mohammad Amir, and Haris Rauf wreaked havoc to bundle them for 119. However, the Men in Green’s fielding wasn’t spot on with a comical incident leaving Rohit and Kohli in splits.
On the third ball of the 18th over, Shaheen bowled a low full-toss at the off stump that Siraj pushed towards sweeper cover. While the batter intended for a quick single, the bowler was casual in his approach to gather the incoming ball and let away an overthrow with the ball rolling towards mid-wicket. This assisted the Indian pair to sneak a couple of runs, leaving Babar Azam furious. Soon, the cameraman caught the attention of Rohit and Kohli sitting next to each other in the dugout with the former in smiles and the latter hiding his laughter with his palms.
Pakistan’s fielding was horrendous in their last encounter against the USA and seeing similar mistakes get repeated, the Twitterverse erupted.
Crazy running

Play well
Only Bumrah, Arshdeep and Siraj Can Save Us Today 🥺. Play Well Boys 💪🏻.

Not kidding
I am not even kidding. The way Siraj was batting was proper way of playing in this condition. He was picking gaps and running doubles and you hit bad balls for boundaries. This was not a pitch where you play high risk in the air shots. Everyone was going for 6s.

Arshdeep trying this

Siraj was playing scoop
Non strikers not running - Hardik in previous over and Arshdeep on last over.
Even though Axar and Pant got saved many times playing like only last over is remaining
Very quessionable
Some questionable running by Siraj in the last over, ran virtually on the middle of the pitch

— Arun (@Arunbaz42_)
