During the powerplay over of the highly-hyped match between India and Pakistan, the Men in Green were going well till the ninth over as they had scored 47 runs for the loss of Babar Azam.
During the final over of powerplay, i.e. the tenth over, a massive show of accuracy was seen by Axar Patel. On the second ball of the over, Kuldeep Yadav bowled one to Imam-ul-Haq. The ball was sent towards the mid-on with a soft hit, and both the batters went in for a single.
However, Axar Patel came in like a savior for the team, got a hold of the ball and made a direct hit toward the stump. Imam was just a little bit shy of crossing the safe line, and was dismissed straight-up. That run was looking like a risky one, and then turned out to be the same.
