Watch: Mohammad Rizwan Takes A Run Without His Bat. Umpire's Decision Stuns Batter

Mohammad Rizwan tried to take a run without his bat but the result was not quite what he expected during the third T20I encounter between Pakistan and New Zealand on Wednesday. During the sixth over of the Pakistan innings, Rizwan played a ball from Matt Henry on the on-side but while sprinting to take a run, he lost control of his bat. He did not slow down and after touching down the crease at the non-striker end with his gloves, he ran to complete a second run. Although he had to complete a full-stretch dive at the end, no harm was done. However, the replays showed that during the first run, Rizwan's gloves were just short of the crease and as a result, the umpire decided to signal a short run.

Pakistan Batter Fined For Palestine Flag On Bat, PCB Intervenes

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has taken a U-turn on its decision to impose a fine on batter Azam Khan for displaying the Palestine flag on his bat during a domestic match.

However, the PCB later reviewed and matter and decided to waive the penalty that was imposed by the match officials.
