“Dua kar! Dua kar ,”Mohammad Hasnain and Naseem Shah are informed by Shadab Khan. “Paanch (five) fielders aa gaya bhai,” Babar Azam yells, alluding to the fielding restriction placed on India for the last few overs as a result of the delay in ending overs.
Additionally, Shadab is told by Babar to sit down after each ball as Mohammad Rizwan continues to converse from the balcony.
The Pakistan cricket board tweeted out tense moments in the team’s dressing room during the final moments. Babar Azam and others are standing. A few people, including Shadab, are seated and urge everyone to pray. Mohammad Rizwan, who scored 71 but left the game early, is perched on the balcony but keeps looking into the dressing room to inquire, “Kitna run hai?!” or to foretell this team’s teammates.
In the final over, as soon as Asif Ali hits a four, Rizwan exclaims, “It ends this ball!” Asif then drops to the ground. Shadab raises his brow. Others offer out prayers. Slapping his thighs, Hasnain exclaims, “S**t!”
Once more, Shadab shouts out, “Dua maangni padegi.” (I need to pray)
Then joyous celebration follows the winning hit. Shadab, who is most likely batting next, loses his mind. Smiles all around. Everyone gives hugs to one another as Rizwan continues to speak as usual.
Asif Ali took advantage of Bhubaneshwar Kumar for 19 runs to basically end the game when there were only 26 runs left from the final two overs. His dismissal in the final over provided a twist, raising feelings in the Pakistani team locker room, but they successfully cross the finish line on the following ball.
