Controversial Pakistan Run-Out’s In International Cricket: Run-outs are a part of cricket, and they can happen to anyone. But they can be costly for the batting team even when they are funny. So, it is important for batsmen to be aware of their surroundings and to communicate with their partners when they are running between the wickets.
Run-outs can be frustrating for batters, but they can also be quite funny. Here are a few examples of funny run-outs involving Pakistan batters:
In the second ODI match between Pakistan and South Africa in 2019, Fakhar Zaman was controversially run out on 193. The reason behind the controversy was the apparent action by South African wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock.
While some argued that it violated the spirit of cricket, others maintained that de Kock was merely playing to win. The incident sparked a heated debate among cricket fans and experts, with opinions divided on whether de Kock’s actions were ethical. Nonetheless, Zaman’s brilliant knock will be remembered for a long time.

During the second Test between Pakistan and Australia in 2018, Pakistan batsman Azhar Ali was involved in a bizarre run-out incident. Caught talking to his teammate Asad Shafiq in the middle of the pitch, Azhar Ali was run out by Australian bowler Mitchell Starc.
The incident left fans and commentators scratching their heads about how such a mistake could be made professionally. Despite the embarrassment, Azhar Ali made amends in the following innings, scoring a century to help Pakistan to a historic victory over the Australians.
Inzamam-ul-Haq, a former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, had a reputation for being an unsafe runner between the wickets. He is famous for being involved in the most runout instances in Pakistan’s cricket history.
Despite his batting prowess, Inzamam’s tendency to take unnecessary risks while running between the wickets often cost him his wicket. His lack of agility and fitness also contributed to poor running between the wickets. Nonetheless, Inzamam remains legendary in Pakistani cricket history for his exceptional batting skills and leadership qualities.
Mohammad Rizwan, a Pakistani cricketer, was dismissed for 44 runs during the Asia Cup opener against Nepal due to his negligence in wearing a helmet and some casual running. The unfortunate incident occurred when Rizwan failed to see the ball coming his way, resulting in a run-out.
