Probably, the Pakistan cricket team and their fans would never like to remember the night of Sunday, the 26th of March; it is all because of the embarrassing defeat of the men in green against Afghanistan in the second of the three-match ODI series. Pakistan also lost the series with a defeat in the second T20I of series.
Apart from that, it was a day to forget for the young Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan as he was subjected to body shaming by a Pakistan cricket fan only. The incident happened when Azam Khan fell prey to the Afghan skipper Rashid Khan in an LBW on the last ball of the 11th over of the Pakistan innings.
Later on, a clip of this moment when a fan went on to body shame the 24-year-old, went viral on social media just after being shared by a user on the micro-blogging site Twitter.
Here’s the video:

Talking about the match, Pak skipper Shadab Khan won the flip of the coin and decided to bat first but he went on to be proven wrong because Pakistan could post a total of only 130 runs for the loss of six wickets in the allotted 20 overs.
It was only the star all-rounder Imad Wasim who played a struggling knock of 64 runs off 57 balls with three boundaries and two sixes to his name. Other than him, only the skipper Shadab Khan could cross the individual mark of 30+ runs with a knock of 32 runs. On the back of these knocks, Pakistan somehow managed to reach a total of 130 runs in 20 overs.
While chasing the target, the star opening batter and wicketkeeper Rahmanullah Gurbaz played a crucial knock of 44 runs off 49 balls with two boundaries and a six on his credit. Apart from him, the number blistering number three batter Ibrahim Zadran also played a match-defining knock of 38 runs to help Afghanistan win the match in 19.5 overs by a margin of seven wickets to take an unassailable lead of 2-0 in the three-match series.
