Pakistan ODI skipper Mohammad Rizwan was trolled on social media after the blunder in the ongoing match against West Indies.
In the ongoing match against West Indies on Tuesday. Pakistan ODI skipper Mohammad Rizwan made a blunder as he got out while leaving the delivery of pacer Jayden Seales. Rizwan decided to leave the ball. However, it was an inswinger from Seales, which connected on the top of the stumps.
The Pakistan team is currently facing a backlash and lack of performance from the entire team as they have won the T20I series against West Indies by 2-1. However, after winning the first ODI, West Indies showcased their dominating performance and registered victory in the two matches.
After the early dismissal, Rizwan got badly tolled on the social media platforms. The decision made by him to leave the in-swinger delivery of Seales added a tag with his name by fans: ‘worst leave of the year award’.
After winning the Player of the match award, West Indies pacer Seales expressed his feelings. “We had a team plan from before. We just tried to execute it to the best of our ability. The analyst and the bowling coach just showed me the line that works in ODI cricket. I am working on it. We wanted to keep the stumps in play. The pitch was a little up and down. Especially in ODI cricket, I have learnt the length to bowl. It takes a lot of time and training. We keep our loads high, and it is paying off,“
On the other hand, Pakistan skipper Mohammad Rizwan praised the performance of Seales.
“We understood this was the third game given that a Test across four innings was played on this deck. The momentum in the last 10 overs took it away as we were on top for the first 40 overs. We thought 220 was chaseable here. The credit goes to them. Credit to Hope. The execution was good but the edges went in their favour. Hope batted well and played some good shots. We had Ayub and Salman bowling. We thought Abrar would come and bowl. But Hope batted well and hence he didn’t complete his overs. Seales was bowling well. He troubled us through the series. We needed partnerships and needed to spend some time,“. Rizwan said.
