Do you remember the Pakistani meme star from the 2019 World Cup? Well, he’ll probably be back! – Magazine Creations

When was the famous look captured?

Mohammad Sarim Akhtar’s famous frustrated look was captured during the Australia vs Pakistan ODI match during the last edition of the Cricket World Cup, which was held on June 12, 2019.

It is known that Pakistan lost the match to Australia by 41 runs after failing to chase down the target of 308 runs. But what upset Pakistani fans was that their team failed to capitalize on the chances created by their bowlers.

On at least two occasions, Pakistan dropped shots that could have changed the course of the match. The first was in the 13th over, when Azhar Ali was dropped by a ball off the bowling of Wahab Riaz on 26 by Australian skipper Aaron Finch, who went on to score 82. Later in the innings, Ali was dropped by another ball off the bowling of Riaz, this time to centurion David Warner.

After the second shot, Akhtar’s famously disappointing appearance emerged, making him one of Pakistani cricket’s most famous fans and attracting global attention.

Another match between Australia and Pakistan, is there another festival coming?

In what was almost a repeat of what happened last time, Pakistan lost their big encounter to the Kangaroos on Friday. In a moment of déjà vu, David Warner was once again dropped off his bowling by a Pakistani left-arm spinner. Usman Mir dropped Warner for 10, as the left-hander scored 163 and played a key role in Australia’s 41-run win over the Men in Green.

However, as was the case last time, the dropped ball by a Pakistani player sparked a sharp reaction from the crowd and was quickly captured on camera for posterity.
