Pick of timid Nawaz by timid Babar for crucial over sent Pakistan packing in World Cup - what a shameful exit

By Irum Saleem

Darpok (timid) Nawaz (not Nawaz Sharif) conceded easy five runs to hand over the match to South Africa.

Nawaz was locked for important over by his timid captain Babar Azam.

Will someone from the Pakistan Cricket Board resign for terrible campaign at the Cricket World Cup 2023 in India.

South Africa pulled out a thrilling victory over Pakistan by defeating Babar eleven by just one wicket while chasing a 271-run target in a crucial World Cup match on Friday.

Tail-ender Keshav Maharaj sealed the victory with a boundary against Muhammad Nawaz when the Proteas required just four runs.

Shaheen Shah Afridi emerged as Pakistan’s top wicket-taker, claiming three scalps, while Haris Rauf, Usama Mir, and Mohammad Wasim each secured two wickets. Earlier, Pakistan put up 270 in the first innings of their sixth match in the International Cricket Council World Cup on Friday.

Babar need an aggressive approach to clinch the victory but he a timid character.

After this defeat Pakistan is out of the world cup.

Green bowlers fought till the last ball. If our batters could make it with a good SR the winner would have been team Pakistan. Modern day cricket needs technique and intellect. A good fight though.
Congratulations team SA!#PAKvSA #PAKvsSA
