WATCH: Axar Patel’s direct hit to dismiss Imam-ul-Haq breaks Pakistan fangirl’s heart in viral video

The India all-rounder completed a fantastic direct-hit to send Imam back to the dugout as Pakistan ended up losing their second wicket within the powerplay

India all-rounder Axar Patel completed a brilliant direct-hit to dismiss Imam-ul-Haq for just 10 runs during the Champions Trophy clash. The event transpired during the 10th over of the Pakistan innings.

Axar’s direct-hit saw Imam remain well short of his ground. Seeing the run-out, a Pakistan fangirl fell on her brother’s shoulder due to disbelief. The clip of the fangirl went viral on social media.

Meanwhile, Pakistan didn’t have the best of starts against India as they ended up losing both openers Imam and Babar Azam within the powerplay itself.

Hardik Pandya got the important wicket of Babar for 23 runs as Pakistan lost their first scalp for 41 runs. Then, Imam lost his wicket in the very next over before the duo of Saud Shakeel and Mohammad Rizwan steadied the innings with a partnership of over 100 runs.
