SA vs PAK | Twitter reacts Abrar’s sly send off after bamboozling Hendricks with wrong’un

The decision to bat first in the first game of the white ball series against Pakistan didn’t go as expected for South Africa. Shaheen Afridi’s new ball discipline was backed up by Abrar Ahmed during the powerplay phase, as he stole the show with a sly-looking send-off following the wicket of Hendricks. 

Having already outsmarted Breetzke in his first over, Abrar stunned another Proteas batter with Hendricks being his second prey. The wrist-spinner came over the wicket and bowled a length delivery outside the stumps that turned sharp into the right-hander. Hendricks rocked back to play against the turn but got beaten on the inside edge as the ball castled onto the stumps. Soon after, the bowler gave a sly send off by gesturing the batter towards the pavilion with his head, prompting the Twitterverse into a frenzy.

That is cute isn't it?

Abrar's celebration style was cute 😍

Things not working for SA!

South Africa are 3 down in PP. Not yet over. They are dangerous side on their home ground. Good bowling, but in a professional cricket, Abrar needs to change his celebration style. It looks very rude and unreasonable.
