Afghanistan avenged their previous defeat against Pakistan in the tri-series held in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In the fourth match of the series, Afghanistan defeated their neighbor by 18 runs. Earlier, they had won their first match in this tournament by defeating the UAE. Afghanistan put up a brilliant performance against Pakistan. During this time, the Pakistan batsmen could not stand in front of their spinners. After the defeat against Afghanistan, Pakistan is being heavily ridiculed on social media.
Pakistan’s batting completely flopped against Afghanistan. Fast bowler Haris Rauf scored the most runs for Pakistan. During this time, Pakistan is being ridiculed on social media. One fan wrote, “You must clearly remember what Shoaib Akhtar had said—he was absolutely right. This was the Sharjah pitch, but when they have to play on the Dubai pitch, remember, they won’t even be able to score 130.”
Another fan wrote that their team is a joke.
Another cricket fan wrote that Haris Rauf, the batsman at number ten against Afghanistan, was Pakistan’s top striker with a strike rate of 212.50. Babar Azam, despite being Pakistan’s highest T20I run-scorer, never achieved this feat in his entire T20I career.
During this time, one fan slammed the Pakistan cricket team. He wrote on social media X, “We kept saying again and again that on these pitches, these waste players won’t be effective—the team needs Babar Azam. But they didn’t care, and today Afghanistan easily defeated Pakistan and proved that all these players are just waste material.”
Another fan wrote that Pakistan is losing this match purely because of its own mistakes. They allowed Afghanistan to keep coming back at regular intervals first with the bowl and then during the run chase.
In this match, batting first, Afghanistan scored 169 runs for the loss of five wickets in 20 overs. In response, the Pakistan team could only score 151 runs for 9 wickets in 20 overs. In this way, they had to face defeat by 18 runs in this match.
