Team India skipper Rohit Sharma and all-rounder Hardik Pandya lost their temper in the 15th over of the game against Pakistan.
Both the players seemed pretty displeased as the ball hit the spider camera and saved Pakistan batter, Shan Masood, from getting out.
Team India was in control of the game and more wickets from there could have pulled things even more in the favor of the men in blue.
After getting a great start from the pacers, specifically, Arshdeep Singh who dismissed both Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan, Team India was trying to stop Pakistan from a below-par total.
In the 15th over of the game, Masood chipped Ashwin’s loopy delivery toward the cover point but couldn’t time it properly.
Hardik Pandya came running from the deep as he positioned himself to take a simple catch.
However, the ball never reached him as it hit the spider cam and eventually saved Masood from losing his wicket.
Rohit and Hardik express their frustration over Spider Cam
Team India looked frustrated with the incident as they missed out on an opportunity to wrap up things quickly.
Indian captain Rohit Sharma had a long argument with the umpire as he was clearly not pleased with missed opportunity while Hardik Pandya too looked completely miffed with the incident.
The frustration from the Indian team had some impact on the umpires he signaled for the spider cam to be taken away from around the playing area just before the next delivery.

This unfortunate event for the Indian Team allowed Shan Masood to continue his innings till the 20th over as he took Pakistan to a competitive total of 162 runs.
Masood played an impressive knock of 52 runs off just 42 balls while getting 5 crucial boundaries.
The left-handed batter showed some temperament as he batted along with the tail and anchored the innings throughout.
The pace trio of Mohammed Shami, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Arshdeep Singh were in complete control of Pakistan’s batters but the innings from Masood along with a few good shots from the tail helped Pakistan post a good total on the board.
