Meanwhile, the captain Babar Azam standing at the mid-wicket position was surprised by the haste of the wicketkeeper Muhammad Rizwan and the umpire’s mistake and he made the umpire and the wicketkeeper feel his presence and said, “I am the captain, and how did you take the review without asking me?”
The cameraman showed several close-ups of Babar Azam uttering the phrase “I am the captain”.
Meanwhile, Mohammad Rizwan tried to convince Babar Azam that he had heard the ball take the outside edge of the bat. Babar Azam’s reaction created an interesting situation on the ground and in the commentary box. He felt the protest and also gave his opinion on it.
Social media users also expressed their regret over the incident that happened with Babar Azam that when the captain did not play well in some matches, conspiracies were started against him.
