Pakistani wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan was in the middle of a hilarious incident on Wednesday. The 30-year-old was seen running without his bat in a bid to complete his run. Despite all the histrionics, the batter was given one run short as he didn’t land his gloves inside the crease.

New Zealand won the game on Wednesday in Dunedin to seal the series 3-0. Finn Allen scored an imposing century to help his side post 224 runs on the board. None of the Pakistani batters apart from Babar Azam seemed to be up for a fight.

The next two games of the series will be played on Friday and Sunday. Shaheen Shah Afridi will hope his team gives a better performance to avoid a series blanking. New Zealand on the other hand will be happy with the result with T20 World Cup in the horizon.

Fans and Commentators left in splits due to Mohammad Rizwan

Pakistan Cricket has produced many funny moments and Mohammad Rizwan added another to the list. The Pakistani player was trying to complete a run but the bat slipped out of his hands.

Not wanting to waste time in picking the bat, Rizwan was seen trying to reach the other end with his hands. The umpires went upstairs to check if he had completed the run or not and found the batter short.

The commentators while speaking on the incident said on-air “Should have gotten three with the bat there. Clever. It just slipped from his hands, and away he goes! Touches down with the gloves, does he? No, he doesn’t,”

Still trying to comprehend what they saw, the commentators said “Wow! So they will signal one short here. That is comedy. This is what I don’t understand about one short. If you are short on one run, of course, the second one shouldn’t count. Because technically you didn’t get the first. It always confuses me.”

Young Finn Allen is the talk of the cricketing world after his masterful century on Wednesday. The 24-year-old at the end of the game said “I’m working on just adapting to the scenario better, situations better, and I guess picking my moments to go. I’m trying to have a stable base and build off that and expand my game from there.”
