In a touching moment, Pakistani pacer Naseem Shah was seen crying after a commendable all-round bowling performance that helped India secure a dramatic win against their arch-rivals in the big-ticket match in New York on June 9.

In the high-stakes T20 World Cup 2024 clash between India and Pakistan, India triumphed by 6 runs at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. Pakistan skipper Babar Azam won the toss and opted to bowl, limiting India to a modest total of 119 runs.

Naseem was the standout performer with the ball, claiming three crucial wickets and playing an important role in restricting India. Despite his efforts, the Pakistani batters faltered under pressure, turning what seemed like a manageable chase into a heartbreaking defeat.

The match came down to the final over, with Naseem facing the last two balls needing 12 runs to win. Unable to secure victory for his team, he was visibly emotional as he walked back to the dressing room alongside Shaheen Shah Afridi, tears streaming down his face. The video and pictures of the moment are going viral across social media platforms.

Naseem's emotional reaction underscored the pain of seeing his valiant efforts undone by his team's collapse during the chase.

The Pakistani bowlers had done the hard work, bowling out India's strong batting line-up for just 119 runs. Naseem's sensational spell included the prized wicket of Virat Kohli. However, the Pakistani batters failed to complement the bowlers' efforts, resulting in a loss that was difficult for Naseem and his teammates to swallow.
