Arshdeep Singh Loses Sitter, and Rohit Sharma’s Reaction Goes Viral. Arshdeep Singh dropped an easy catch of Asif Ali in the 18th over, causing a massive momentum shift.
The Super 4 Asia Cup match between India and Pakistan on Sunday will be remembered as a thrilling encounter. From Virat Kohli’s massive 60-run knock off 44 balls to Pakistan’s wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan’s 71-run knock, which helped his side to a five-wicket win on Dubai’s ground. There were some key moments in the game, but India were unable to win those small contests within contests, and in the end, the Babar Azam-led side won. One such instance occurred in the 18th over, when India pacer Arshdeep Singh dropped a relatively easy catch of Asif Ali, resulting in a massive momentum shift.
Pakistan needed 34 runs in the 18th over, bowled by Ravi Bishnoi, with Khushdil Shah and Asif Ali on the crease. Asif played a sweep shot on the third delivery, and the ball went into the air, looking like an easy take for Arshdeep. But fate had other plans for Asif Ali, as the ball passed through his hands and he survived.
