The moment of run out in cricket is extremely exciting. On one side the batsmen are running, on the other side the fielder is running behind the ball. Thoughts over the ball, a very important decision to take. Tell me where to throw? Send to the bowling end or a relatively easy target to the wicketkeeper? The speed of a batsman on any side is a little slow, it has to be remembered in a moment. Then the ball is thrown, he is responsible for breaking the stumps again with the ball. All in all, it is a huge task in a short time.

There was no way to understand that today by seeing Sikandar Raja. Opponent's two batsmen Imam-ul-Haq and Haris Sohail are playing well. Zimbabwe will return to the match if one of them is out. Even in such a tense moment, Imam got out without any hindrance. Of course, he had no reason to worry. Two batsmen that then at the other end. Harris and Imam went to the wicketkeeper to defend themselves. As a result, Raja has been able to run out all the time in the kingdom.
Pakistan won the toss and elected to field. With this match in Rawalpindi, they broke the corona. Sometimes they have visited England. But in the midst of this coronavirus epidemic on the soil of the country, the PCB put a message back to international cricket. The funny thing happened in such a match. The incident of the 28th over of the Pakistan innings. The hosts scored 119 runs for 2 wickets. Imam got fifty a little earlier. Harris is also comfortable with 30 runs. The Imam was bowled at a short length by King Sikandar. Imam pushed to the point. Zimbabwe captain Chamu Chibaba had no thought of a run in his head after stopping the ball with a dive.Harris, on the other hand, has already run for quick runs. The Imam saw his companion beside him before the believers. Chibaba quickly threw towards the wicketkeeper. But the moment Brendon Taylor caught the ball, he saw two batsmen running towards him. The ball then passed him to fielder Madhav. The fielder did not miss such an opportunity. Sikandar gave the ball to Raja with a cold head. And from there, Raja has completed the formality of breaking the stump. Imam returned for 56 runs.
It is not a new thing for Pakistan cricketers to be out on one side like this. They create misunderstandings almost regularly. Even the country's young cricketers have shown something like this in this year's Under-19 World Cup. In the semi-final against India, Qasim Akram and Rohail Nazir went to the bowling end. Kashim Akram was out as he was closer to the wicketkeeper than his teammate. The Indians made a lot of fun of the Pakistanis through social media.
