Failures are not easy to accept and a few of its ways could be an embarrassment. Sajid Khan ensured that England bowler Matthew Potts felt the same way after a ball spin through the legs and cleaned up the latter on the third day of the second Test between England and Pakistan in Multan.
Resuming the proceedings from 239/6 at the start of the third day, Jamie Smith and Brdon Carse failed to continue for long as the Pakistani spinners came to the fore. Sajid Khan continued his blissful work with the ball in the presence of Noman Ali with the former claiming his six-fer after embarrassing Potts with a mind-boggling delivery.
The fourth ball of the 60th over saw Sajid come over the wicket and dish an off-spinner at the right-handed batter. Potts looked to reach to the pitch of the ball but failed to negate it as the red rock turned square of the pitch sharply. It crashed through the legs of the batter to dismantle the stumps, leaving Potts stunned. With this terrific stuff, Sajid claimed his six-fer in the game and left the Twitterverse abuzz.
