It very rarely occurs in world cricket that fielders and the umpire are unaware about a batter nicking a delivery to the wicketkeeper. However, Fakhar Zaman took everyone by surprise as he decided to sincerely walk off after edging a delivery from Avesh Khan even before umpire gave his ruling.

India are up against Pakistan in the highly anticipated Asia Cup clash. India have started well bowling first taking a couple of breakthroughs inside the first powerplay. Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan had started well but a bouncer from Bhuvneshwar Kumar sent Azam packing. Avesh Khan picked the second wicket of the innings but Fakhar Zaman walking in a display of sportsman spirit was the highlight of this dismissal.
