Axar Patel gives angry reaction
Team India’s captain for the tour KL Rahul won the toss once again and surprisingly chose to bowl one more time. His bowlers didn’t let their skipper down and after a lull in initial 9 overs, kept chipping in with wickets as their opponent was reduced to 161 all-out within 39 overs. It was during the 28th over of the Zimbabwe inning that Axar Patel gives angry reaction after he was hit by a throw by Ishan Kishan.
The incident where Axar Patel gives angry reaction came on the second delivery of the 28th over when Deepak Hooda was bowling to Ryan Burl. The bowler bowled a short-pitch delivery which was cut by Burl towards deep extra cover where Ishan Kishan was patrolling. The fielder collected the ball and threw it towards the keeper, but the ball instead hit Axar Patel who was standing at short cover.
