On the second day of the second test match, Saud Shakeel standing in the slip dropped an easy catch of Bangladeshi batsman Shadman Islam. This happened on the first ball of Bangladesh’s innings. Islam tried to play an outside-swinging delivery from left-arm fast bowler Mir Hamla. But the ball hit the edge of the bat and went towards the gully. Saud standing there dropped the ball that came in his hand.
Pakistan has once again been embarrassed due to poor fielding in the Rawalpindi Test against Bangladesh. On the second day of the second Test match, Saud Shakeel standing at slip dropped an easy catch of Bangladeshi batsman Shadman Islam. This happened on the first ball of Bangladesh’s innings. Islam tried to play the outside-swinging delivery of left-arm fast bowler Mir Hamla. But the ball hit the edge of the bat and went towards the gully. Saud standing there dropped the ball that came in his hand.
This mistake was not enough as Sam Ayub, who was standing near Saud Shakeel, had a great chance to catch the rebound catch. But he was also not ready for this match and the ball fell on the ground. Since then, criticism has started regarding the fielding of the Pakistan team. After this catch was dropped, disappointment could be clearly seen on the faces of the Pakistani fielders. The umpire also had to hide his face for a moment.
Let us tell you that Pakistan’s fielding has been a matter of concern for some time and this recent lapse has further increased the team’s troubles. The second Test is still going on, so Pakistan will have to improve their fielding a lot to make a comeback and put pressure on Bangladesh.
