The bowler’s bouncer, who was making a debut for the Pakistan cricket team, created an atmosphere of awe in the entire stadium for a moment.
It is common to have an accident in sports. The game of cricket is also not untouched by accidents that happen on a 22-yard pitch. One such dreadful incident came to light during the T20 series being played between Pakistan and Zimbabwe. Which not only created an atmosphere of fear, but also brought back the creepy memories. Actually, Pakistan won the first match of the T20 series between the two countries. After this, the second match of the series was played between the two teams on Friday. In this, Zimbabwe recorded a historic victory over Pakistan, defending the small goal, but during a time of batting, the team’s beating was accelerated when a deadly bowler of the Pakistani bowler cut two pieces of Zimbabwean batsman’s helmet.

Actually, in this match played at Harare Sports Club, Zimbabwe won by 19 runs. Zimbabwe scored just 118 runs for nine wickets while batting first. This goal was not very difficult for Pakistan, but the team could not achieve it and could not progress beyond 99 runs. However, during this period, fast bowler Arshad Iqbal, who was making a debut for Pakistan, a deadly bouncer, along with Zimbabwean batsman Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, left the rest of the players in awe.
Arshad Iqbal’s dangerous bouncer
This was the first international match of 20-year-old Arshad Iqbal. In the second over, Iqbal threw this dangerous bouncer, which started going to the helm of the rising troop. As soon as the ball hit, the helmet broke into two pieces. A piece fell close to the pitch. As soon as the ball was on the helmet, fear was clearly seen on the face of Tinashe. The Pakistani fielders present on the field ran towards him. Immediately the physiotherapists of the Zimbabwe team also reached and examined the batsman. There was a concussion test, in which no serious injury was revealed and the game was allowed to continue. The highest contribution of Zimbabwe’s 118 runs was from Tinashe, who hit 4 fours in the innings of 34 off 40 balls. For Pakistan, Mohammad Hasnain and Danish Aziz got two wickets each while Arshad Iqbal took one wicket for 16 runs in 4 overs.
Last seven wickets lost for 21 runs
In response, Pakistan’s entire team collapsed for 99 runs in 19.5 overs. Captain Babar Azam played 41 runs with the help of 5 fours in 45 balls, but there was no support from the rest of the batsmen. Luke Jongwe took 4 wickets for Zimbabwe. Pakistan lost their last 7 wickets for just 21 runs.
