Fans React After Shaheen Afridi Dismissed Rohit And Rahul To Leave India On The Back Foot

The Indian cricket team started the much-awaited game against arch-rivals Pakistan with a worst-possible note after being invited to bat first as Shaheen Shah Afridi dismissed both the openers with just six runs on the board.

Pakistan’s young sensation Shaheen Afridi continued his merry ways as he dismissed India’s in-form openers. Rohit Sharma became the first victim of Shaheen Afridi’s lethal delivery as he was dismissed for a ‘golden duck’ on the very first ball of the innings. The Indian vice-captain was dismissed for zero as India ended the first over with the score reading 2-1 after the first over.

 

However, that wasn’t it, the nightmare continued for team India as KL Rahul became the next victim of Shaheen Afridi as the Pakistani sensation got the ball to whiz past him and shatter the wicket in his first outing in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2021.

Meanwhile, the fans on social media were left disappointed with the performance of both the Indian openers. In no time, social media was flooded with reactions from the fans to the disappointing performances of Rohit and KL Rahul. From cricketers, experts to fans, everyone took to their twitter and reacted to the dismissals.

Here, check out the reactions of twitterati on this:

Pakistan have done their homework on Rohit Sharma well. We’ve seen this dismissal before.

When Rohit Sharma stays on the wicket for 35+ balls in T20Is, India’s win percentage is 90% and when KL Rahul does that it is 85%. Shaheen Afridi has removed the two big match winners of India. Superb fast bowling. #T20WorldCup

Now with both the Indian openers back in the dugout early in their opening game of the T20 World Cup, team India took a backseat in the game. However, Virat Kohli is sweating it out and playing a crucial knock to save the day for team India.
