KARACHI: Former Pakistan captain and wicketkeeper batter Moin Khan has highlighted a \u2018technical error\u2019 in skipper Babar Azam\u2019s sweep shot, which led to his dismissal against Tabraiz Shamsi.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pakistan, which opted to bat first, managed to score 270 runs and were all out, however, chasing the target, though the Proteas kept lost wickets to Pakistani side, they had Aiden Markram on their side who scored 91 runs in 93 balls.<\/p>\n

When Markram lost his wicket with 21 runs still to get, Pakistan, for the first time, got a hold of the match. Following this, the Proteas lost the wicket of Gerald Coetzee, and were back in the game.<\/p>\n

With Keshav Maharaj and Lungi Ngidi on the crease and South Africa needed 8 runs in 4 overs with 2 wicket in hand, Babar took the chance and handed over the ball to Wasim, hoping to finish the match in the 47th over, as Lungi Ngidi out caught and bowled by Rauf in the 46th over.<\/p>\n

Maharaj and Shamsi somehow managed his over and got three runs. But then, 5 runs were left to be made by the Proteas, with one wicket in hand.<\/p>\n

Pakistani skipper gave the ball to left-arm spinner Mohammad Nawaz. This resulted in Maharaj finishing off the game with a boundary, and winning the match by 1 wicket.<\/p>\n

It is pertinent to mention here that Babar Azam fell victim to Tabraiz Shamsi soon after reaching his half-century. The right-handed batter went for a paddle sweep but to only manage to nick behind to the keeper.<\/p>\n
