Shaheen's outstanding delivery to dismiss Rohit [Source: @kuchbhi12341416/X]
Ace speedster Shaheen Afridi drew the first blood for Pakistan as he cleaned up Indian captain Rohit Sharma with a magnificent delivery in the ongoing Champions Trophy match between the two teams in Dubai. Opening the batting for India, Rohit managed 20 runs before Shaheen castled him with an absolute ripper.
Shaheen's Magic Ball Cleans Up Rohit In Champions Trophy
The incident occurred during the fifth over of India's innings when Pakistan desperately needed someone to break the first-wicket stand between Rohit and Shubman Gill. Shaheen Afridi did the job for the hosts, as he bowled an absolute jaffa to get rid of the Indian skipper.
From over the wicket, Shaheen bowled a full-length delivery that jagged back into Rohit after pitching around the middle stump. The left-arm pacer outclassed Rohit with his ability to generate late swing, uprooting his stumps in this process.
As a result, Rohit, who looked magnificent during his brief stay, departed scoring only 20 runs off 15 deliveries.
Sublime Shubman Keeps Indian Hopes Alive
Despite losing his opening partner Rohit Sharma early in the innings, in-form batter Shubman Gill has been fabulous with the bat so far. The opener, who struck a blistering ton in the last match, has raced to 25 in no time. As of writing, India were 46 for one, with Virat Kohli batting alongside Gill in the middle.
