Pakistan captain Babar Azam is continuing to struggle in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022 as he failed for the third successive time in the tournament. The stakes were high in Pakistan's third match in Asia Cup as they were taking on arch-rivals India in the Super 4 clash at Dubai International Stadium. However, Babar could score only 14 off 10 balls before being dismissed by leggie Ravi Bishnoi. Babar's innings included just 2 boundaries. On the previous two occasions, Babar had scored 10 and 9 vs India and Hong Kong respectively.
Pakistani fans took to Twitter to roast their captain, saying he might have caught the disease of 'poor form' from Virat Kohli, who he had met before the tournament on the sidelines of the net session. Well, all of this was just a light humour and nothing else. Pakistan and Indians are very passionate about cricket and such funny tweets do come about when their heroes fail.
Take a look at the reactions as Babar Azam was trolled on Twitter
Sach kehte hn....har performance kay peechay aik kahani hoti hai.

Earlier, India posted 181/7 in 20 overs powered by a 44-ball 60 from former Indian captain Virat Kohli. Not to forget that Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul shone with the bat as well, putting on 50 for the first wicket.
Rohit started off the innings with a boundary and looked to attack every ball. Rahul too finally scored a run against Pakistan after failing to open his account in last 2 encounters. Indian middle order had a difficult time as Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya and Rishabh Pant failed collectively as India struggled to get going in the slog overs. Deepak Hooda, playing his first game in Asia Cup 2022, too could not do much.
It was all thanks to tail-ender Ravi Bishnoi's two boundaries that India reached 181/7 in 20 overs.
