We often see Babar Azam celebrate his teammate's wickets wildly on the field. Hence, no wonder when Saim Ayub, his Pakistan Super League (PSL) teammate, picked up his maiden Test wicket on Friday in Rawalpindi, he was absolutely pumped up to enjoy the moment.

More significantly, it was Shakib Al Hasan, one of the all-time greats of the sport, who became Ayub's victim.  

It was a lovely flighted delivery by Ayub, which Shakib, batting on 15 off 16 balls, tried to drive, only to hit straight to Shan Masood. Ayub himself was delighted, and Babar joined hands to make the moment even more memorable.
