NEW DELHI: During Pakistan’s practice session ahead of the three-match ODI series against New Zealand, all eyes were on star batter Babar Azam as the team prepared for the opening ODI at McLean Park, Napier, on March 29.
However, the Pakistan stalwart endured a tough outing in the nets.
During the session, Babar was dismissed by a net bowler while attempting a shot toward the leg side against an off-spinner.
The bowler’s loud appeal was quickly upheld by the umpire, who adjudged Babar LBW. The dismissal left Babar in complete disbelief.
