The dismissal of Pakistan’s captain Babar Azam during Sunday’s T20 World Cup final match against England at Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) angered the nation’s supporters.
Adil Rashid took the crucial wicket in the 12th over after producing a googly to dismiss Babar for 32.
After Mohammad Rizwan and Mohammad Haris were able to be sent back to the pavilion by England, the skipper was the third batter to be struck out.
The World Cup holds special significance for the country and the cricketing community because it shares many characteristics with the 1992 World Cup, which saw Pakistan win its first World Cup title.
However, the fans were disappointed by Babar’s expulsion because they had high expectations for the captain.
