Babar Azam-led Pakistan cricket team has been on the receiving end of massive criticism and trolling following their super over loss against the United States in match 11 of the ongoing edition of the T20 World Cup 2024 which was being played at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas, on June 6 (Thursday). Amidst this, even Indian Premier League franchises Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants also passed subtle jibes at the Men in Green side.
IPL franchises troll Pakistan cricket
Rajasthan Royals posted a video of kids playing cricket who kept on missing the easiest opportunity to do a run-out and captioned it by writing ‘No contest Super Over #USAvPAK’ and Lucknow Super Giants posted a picture of Pakistan influencers Wasay Habib and Iffi Raza, who are renowned for their criticism on Babar Azam-led side and captioned it with ‘Ok Good Night’. Both these posts are now going viral all across social media.

Babar Azam reflects on the loss
Pakistan team batting first could only post 159/7 but then USA managed to level the score and drag the match into the super over. US batting first in the super over posted 18 runs and it later turned out to be enough to secure their biggest win in cricket history. Babar Azam was hight disappointed with his teammates and said the hosts outclassed them in all three departments.
“First 6 overs while batting we didn’t capitalise. Back-to-back wickets always put you on the back foot, as a batter you need to step up and build partnerships. We were not up to the mark in the first 6 overs with the ball. Our spinners also did not take wickets in the middle overs so these things cost us. Very hard, all credit to USA, they played better than us in all three departments. Little bit of moisture in the pitch, it was also two-paced. As a professional, you need to assess the conditions,” said Babar in the post-match presentation.
