In the ongoing second Test match between Pakistan and England in Multan, plenty of action is happening on the ground. The game has swung around from one team to another. However, the game has seen the ugly side as well. Apparently, Pakistan skipper Babar Azam faced the crowd’s heckling. He was called ‘Zimbabar’ after losing his wicket to Ollie Robinson.
After him, his teammate, Naseem Shah faced the crowd heckling problem. Apparently, he was moving inside the boundary line when some fans decided to call him ‘chikna’. The right-arm pacer isn’t playing the game as he was ruled out after the first game. The video of the entire incident is doing rounds on the internet.

Meanwhile, Pakistan is in a great position to win the game. At the start of Day Four’s play, the home side was at 198/4, needing to chase down the target of 355. Saud Shakeel is batting on 93 with Mohammad Nawaz playing the innings of 45 runs. At the time of writing, the latter was caught behind and Pakistan lost their sixth wicket at the score of 290. Now, they need to chase down the remaining 65 runs.
Salman Ali Agha has come out to bat, he played a decent inning in the last game before being trapped lbw. After his wicket, the team collapsed and lost the game in Rawalpindi. This time around, both players would look to take the team over the line with the series on the line. If Pakistan manages to win, the series will be leveled 1-1 and the next game will become a decider.
The last game of the three-match series will be played in Karachi from December 17.
