Babar Azam Trolled by Fans for Using DRS Despite Clearly Edging the Ball During PAK vs WI 1st Test 2025
The star right-hander failed to make an impact to the scorecard after he edged the ball to be caught behind. West Indies had Pakistan reduced to 46/4 at one stage before Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel staged a fightback.
Babar Azam was trolled on social media by fans after he opted to take a review despite edging the ball on Day 1 of the PAK vs WI 1st Test 2025 in Multan, on Friday, January 17. The star Pakistan batter edged the delivery off Jayden Seales' bowling and was caught behind by wicketkeeper Tevin Adrian Imlach. However, he opted to use the DRS (Decision Review System), which clearly showed that he had edged the ball and he had to walk back to the pavilion after scoring just eight runs off 20 deliveries. Fans questioned his decision to use the review despite having edged the delivery.
