Watch: Sarfraz Ahmed fails miserably while trying to emulate MS Dhoni's plan

The king is king everywhere; Perhaps, the line will best suit MS Dhoni. When it comes to field setting and reading the batsman mind, there is no one who can come close to the former Indian skipper who recently led India for the 200th time. Meanwhile, Pakistan’s skipper Sarfraz Ahmed tried to follow the same and failed miserably.

MS Dhoni in the game against Bangladesh requested the skipper Rohit Sharma to remove Shikhar Dhawan from slip and move to Short square-led position. In the very quick time, Shakib swept Ravindra Jadeja straight to the hands of Dhawan thus showing his prowess again as the mastermind.

Meanwhile, in the game between Pakistan and Bangladesh, a similar incident took place. Hasan Ali, who is bowling at full throttle bowled a full delivery which was cover driven to the boundary.

It prompted Sarfraz Ahmed to remove the slip fielder and got the short mid-wicket. The very next ball Hasan Ali’s delivery caught the edge and went for the boundary in the very same direction, which would have been an easy catch for the fielder if not removed.

Coming to Pakistan’s game against Bangladesh, unfortunately, Pakistan has been out of the tournament. Mashrafe Mortaza led the team with perfection in defending the moderate total on the board.

Though Imam Ul Haq tried his heart out for Pakistan, none of the batsmen gave their helping hand to Imam thus letting themselves head down before travelling back to their homeland.

The Sarfraz-led side made their way to the tournament as the favourites to win the trophy. But, they lost their morale after losing in 2 games against India that furtherly led to a disaster against Bangladesh in an all-important game.
