Babar Azam Brutally Trolled After Duck On T20I Return Against South Africa

Pakistan cricket team batter Babar Azam was dismissed for a duck during the first T20I encounter against South Africa in Rawalpindi on Tuesday. Babar, who last played a T20I for Pakistan back in December 2024, failed to impress on his return as he was dismissed by Corbin Bosch. In the sixth over of Pakistan's innings, Babar completely miscued his shot against a pacy length delivery from Bosch. It was a simple catch for Reeza Hendricks at cover as Babar's stay at the crease lasted just two balls. Social media was not happy with Babar's performance and the Pakistan batter was trolled brutally by the users.

Earlier, Babar also dropped a sitter at long-on that proved to be costly for Pakistan. The incident happened in the 17th over of South Africa's innings as George Linde slammed a delivery from Shaheen Afridi straight to Babar. However, despite making his ground, the ball bounced out of his hands.

Linde went on to score 36 off 22 balls as South Africa posted a total of 194/9 in 20 overs.

Pakistan XI: Saim Ayub, Sahibzada Farhan, Babar Azam, Salman Agha (c), Usman Khan (wk), Hasan Nawaz, Mohammad Nawaz, Faheem Ashraf, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, Abrar Ahmed 

South Africa XI: Quinton de Kock (wk), Reeza Hendricks, Tony de Zorzi, Dewald Brevis, Matthew Breetzke, Donovan Ferreira (c), George Linde, Corbin Bosch, Lizaad Williams, Nandre Burger, Lungi Ngidi

Delhi to Get More EV Charging, Battery Swapping Stations as Cab Aggregators Increase E-Bikes

After Nitish Kumar's 'Praise', BJP Says Doors Closed For Him

The opposition BJP in Bihar on Thursday said that its doors were "closed" for Chief Minister Nitish Kumar who dumped the saffron party a year ago, stripping it of power in the state. State BJP President Samrat Choudhary made the averment to this effect in reply to queries from journalists about the Janata Dal United leader's address to the convocation ceremony of Mahatma Gandhi Central University at Motihari. Speaking in the presence of President Droupadi Murmu and Governor Rajendra Arlekar, Mr Kumar had freely spoken of the tussle he had with the then Congress government at the Centre for getting a university approved for Motihari, where Mahatma Gandhi had launched the Champaran Satyagraha. Without mentioning Prime Minister Narendra Modi by name, Mr Kumar acknowledged that the project saw the light of the day only after a change of guard "in 2014" as the UPA government "initially refused and after much persuasion agreed in principle but did not move for...
