T20 World Cup 2022: It hasn’t been the best of starts for the gulf nation as UAE began their campaign in the T20 World Cup 2022 qualifiers Round 1 matchup against Netherlands. UAE chose to bat first after winning the toss, however they only managed to score 111 for 8 in their 20 overs, and despite a fantastic bowling performance, they lost by three wickets. A unique occurrence of Aayan Afzal Khan falling to the ground has now went viral over the internet.
Aayan Afzal Khan, who was batting at position nine, was caught off a Fred Klassen delivery after only managing to score 5 runs in 7 balls. He stumbled over the boundary ropes and fell flat on his face, though, as he was returning to the pavilion. However, the 16-year-old stood up right away and went away. Watch the video:
The UAE bowlers responded with a strong fight. Vikramjit Singh, the opener, was dismissed by them in the second over with just 14 runs on the board. In actuality, the UAE bowlers controlled the run flow while the Netherlands bowlers consistently lost wickets.
In the last ball of the innings, the Dutch players just managed to push their side across the finish line after completely mishandling the relatively easy goal of 112.
