[Watch] ‘B**dk’ – Angry Salman Agha Abuses Babar Azam in Frustration; Here’s What Happened
Salman Agha lashed out at Babar Azam while he was fielding near boundary.
The first match of the Pakistan-New Zealand Tri-Series at the Gaddafi Stadium turned out to be a high-voltage contest. New Zealand set a challenging target of 330, thanks to a brilliant century from Glenn Phillips. While the match saw some great performances, an unexpected moment involving Babar Azam, Salman Agha, and Mohammad Rizwan grabbed attention.
Salman Agha’s Unexpected Reaction Leaves Babar Azam in Awkward Spot
During his spell, Salman Agha suddenly stopped mid-run-up, visibly frustrated with the field placement. Without hesitation, he turned towards Babar Azam, making animated gestures as if pointing out an issue. His reaction hinted at a possible misalignment in the field, which seemingly annoyed both him and skipper Mohammad Rizwan.
Rizwan, who was behind the stumps, also appeared irritated by the situation. The camera then zoomed in on Babar Azam, who gave a nervous smile, further adding to the moment’s awkwardness. Though it’s unclear what exactly caused the incident, it suggested a lapse in communication or positioning that didn’t sit well with the bowler and wicketkeeper.

Despite the minor on-field tension, Agha delivered a decent bowling performance, conceding 31 runs in 4.4 overs. He was brought in as a replacement after Haris Rauf walked off due to an injury, and though he didn’t pick up a wicket, he maintained control against a strong New Zealand batting lineup.
