Today, Dubai International Cricket Stadium is hosting another high-voltage India vs Pakistan game. Last year, India suffered a defeat at the same venue against their arch-rivals. Today, Rohit won the toss and decided to bowl first at the venue where dew plays a big role. The decision turned out to be good as India got rid of the dangerous Babar Azam early courtesy of Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s short ball.

In the very next delivery, the no.3 of Pakistan Fakhar Zaman almost got caught behind after the ball takes an edge. Luckily, he survived as it was out of Dinesh Karthik’s reach. It was his lucky day as later on, he edged one of Avesh Khan’s delivery to the keeper, however, Indian players had no clue about it, and neither umpire raised his finger.

But Fakhar Zaman showed honesty and chose to walk off the pitch despite no appeal from any player. Umpire then raised his finger and a clear spike could be seen on the ‘Ultraedge’. The act of sportsmanship from Fakhar Zaman wins Indian fans’ hearts some of which took to Twitter to appreciate him.

Pakistan loses the second wicket.

After two early blows, Mohammad Rizwan cemented his feet and played a responsible knock. The keeper batter’s gritty came to an end at the score of 43. Once Rizwan departed, Pakistan’s batting order collapsed like cards and could only manage to post 147 runs on the board. When this article was posted India had yet to bat.
