New Zealand defeated Pakistan in the fifth ODI
Kiwi team saved from clean sweep in ODI series
New Delhi. Pakistan had to face defeat by 47 runs in the last match of the five ODI series against New Zealand. Chasing the target of 300 runs from the Kiwis, the entire Pakistan team returned to the pavilion for 252 runs. Babar Azam’s team managed to win the series 4-1, but due to the defeat in the last match, he lost the number one crown in the ODI rankings. Pakistan’s batsman Shan Masood also had to be embarrassed in this match.
Shan Masood got a chance to play in three matches in the series, in which he could score only 52 runs. In the last match, he returned to the pavilion after scoring 7 runs. The spectators present in the Karachi stadium shouted slogans of slip-slip against Shan Masood in the middle of the match. Slip means recommended player. Shan Masood is considered to be the choice of Najam Sethi, the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board. The video of fans teasing Shan Masood is going viral on social media. Fans believe that Shan Masood got a place in the team not on the basis of performance but due to favoriteism. Earlier, similar slogans were raised in the stadium against Khushdil Shah during the England series.
Not acceptable at all. Not when it’s Khushdil Shah, not when it’s Imam Ul Haq and not when it’s Shan Masood! No player deserves to hear chants of ‘parchi’ at this stage in international cricket. #PAKvNZ pic.twitter.com/OS4oCIfl8j
