In an emotional and thrilling moment during the 3rd and final ODI against Australia, Pakistan’s star fast bowler Shaheen Afridi suffered a painful blow to his left thumb due to a shot by an Australian batter.
During this painful moment, Babar Azam stepped up and won hearts by helping fix Shaheen Afridi’s injured thumb. The support and expertise of former captain Babar Azam shone through, earning admiration from both fans and commentators.
Shaheen Afridi was struck by a fierce delivery from Australian pacer Sean Abbott as he attempted to stop the ball. The impact left the young bowler visibly shaken, and the Pakistani camp was concerned about Afridi in this intense moment of discomfort.
At this moment, Babar Azam rushed toward the player, showcasing not only his cricketing skills but also his calm and composed nature under pressure. Babar gently adjusted Shaheen Afridi’s thumb, helping to alleviate the pain.
He also offered words of encouragement to Shaheen Afridi, as seen in the viral video circulating on social media today. The commentators speculated that it could be a thumb dislocation, but Babar, maintaining a steady grip, applied pressure until the team physio arrived on the scene.
The physio ruled out a dislocation and applied a spray to the injured area. Shaheen Afridi then returned to his bowling duties, proving his unwavering resolve, which brought much relief to Pakistani fans.
During the match, the performance of the Pakistani team was spectacular. Pakistani pacers, including Shaheen Afridi, were in excellent form, restricting the world No. 1 Australian batting lineup to just 140 runs in the 3rd and decisive ODI of the series.
