PAK vs ENG | Twitter erupts as Sajid Khan’s fiery death stare caps off brilliant delivery to Ollie Pope
Pakistan were bowled out for 366 runs, largely thanks to Kamran Ghulam’s debut century and Jack Leach’s four-wicket haul. In response, England’s openers, Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley, got off to a strong start, taking the score to 73/0 in 12 overs. However, Noman Ali broke the opening partnership by dismissing Crawley in the 13th over. Duckett, joined by Ollie Pope, then added 52 runs, with Duckett reaching his half-century off just 47 balls. Just as the partnership seemed solid, Sajid Khan struck, removing Pope and following it up with a fiery celebration.
On the third ball of the 24th over, Sajid delivered a brilliant off-break flighting the ball around the off-stump. The ball landed on the rough and sharply turned back in. Pope, leaning forward to push it to the off-side left a wide gap between bat and pad. The ball snuck through the gate and crashed into the off stump. As the stumps shattered, Sajid erupted into a fervent celebration, staring Pope down as he walked back to the pavilion. The moment quickly caught the attention of Twitter users, who shared their reactions on social media.
A ripper from Sajid Khan turns in to clean up Ollie Pope! 🎯

Sajid Khan is visibly frustrated with Salman Agha’s movement in the slips. If Salman had stayed in his original position, it could have been a catch. Sajid’s displeasure is clear as he shows his frustration on the field.#BenDuckett #TestCricket #ENGvPAK #PakistanCricket #PAKvENG… pic.twitter.com/Qh1gVIiBPT
