Babar Azam got caught in Dravid's Trap..!?

 
A mistake made by Pakistani captain Babar Azam was favorable for the indian team to win. In the Asia Cup series, india and pakistan teams clashed yesterday. In this match, the indian team won a great victory over the pakistan team by 5 wickets. Batting first, pakistan lost all wickets for 147 runs in 19.5 overs. The indian team who played after this lost only 5 wickets in 19.4 overs and reached the target. hardik pandya in particular scored a six to seal the thrilling victory. In this case, the only mistake made by Babar Azam turned out to be a good thing for the indian team, which was unable to score runs.
In yesterday's match, the pakistan team relied on only 5 bowlers. It consists of 3 fast bowlers and 2 spinners. 2 spinners should have bowled their 4 overs within 15 overs. But spinner Mohammad Nawaz was suspended till 20 overs. The reason for this is rahul Dravid. suryakumar yadav has to field for the 2nd wicket in the indian team. But rahul dravid fielded Jadeja at that spot. Because Jadeja can hit the left-arm spinner well in the middle overs, he was dropped. Understanding this, Babar Azam thought he was acting cautiously and kept delaying Mohammad Nawaz's over until Jadeja was out.
Babar used all the fast bowlers early to get Jadeja down. But Jadeja stood firm until the last over. Due to this, there was no other option but to give the last over to Nawaz. Here, Jadeja got out in the first ball, which was an unexpected incident. However, the 2nd plan was also ready there.
Hardik Pandya, who has played comfortably for a long time, can hit back-to-back sixes against spinners.
He bravely stood without running even a single. As a result, he hit a six in the last over as an assault and searched for victory. Usually, no one gives an over to the spinners in the last over. But it is worth noting that Babar got caught in Dravid's trap yesterday.
