Pakistan's Salman Ali Agha, a key player in the second Test against Bangladesh, was visibly emotional as he missed an easy catch to dismiss Shadman Islam early in the game. The team's hopes were pinned on Agha to make this crucial catch, and his disappointment was palpable.

The Men in Green, who are desperate for crucial breakthroughs, cannot afford these on-field errors. Agha, who knew this, dropped to the field and looked to get tearful as his teammate, Mohd Rizwan consoled him.

Mir Hamza, who got the first breakthrough after removing Zakir Hasan, looked visibly frustrated.


On the first ball of the 17th over, Hamza bowled a back-of-a-length delivery outside off from over the wicket. Shadman, seeing the width offered, threw his bat at it, resulting in a thick outside edge to the left of the flying second slip fielder, Salman Ali Agha. Agha's diving effort was good, but he was not in an ideal position to snaffle the catch. 

The gap between the second slip and gully was too big, and another fielder in the cordon could have made it a more straightforward chance.

Although his diving effort was reasonable, he was not in a good position to snaffle the catch. The gap between the second slip and the gully was too big. There should have been another fielder in the cordon, which would have been a more straightforward chance.

Eventually, Shadnam was forced to walk back for just 24 runs as Khurram Shahzad took his wicket.
