The final of the 20-20 World Cup 2022 between Pakistan and England is currently underway at the Melbourne Cricket Stadium. England skipper, Jos Buttler won the toss and opted to bowl first. For Pakistan, they needed Rizwan and Babar to get their team off to a good start. However, the duo struggled to got going.

Pakistan had only managed 16 runs in the first three overs with Rizwan scoring 7 runs in 9 balls. He broke the shackles on the first ball of the fourth over, smacking Woakes for a six over square leg. However, that was the only boundary he hit during his innings.

Sam Curran came into the attack on the next delivery and rattled Rizwan’s stumps as the latter dragged one onto his stumps. As a result, M Rizwan departed after scoring just 15 runs in 14 balls. The fans on Twitter trolled the Pakistan opener brutally following a lackluster knock in the final at Melbourne Cricket Ground.
