Table of Contents
A hilarious incident took place in the second ODI between Pakistan and Bangladesh, as all-rounder spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz dismissed Pakistan batter Salman Ali Agha in one of the most unconventional fashions.
Pakistan are currently on their tour to Bangladesh and is playing in a three-match ODI series. This marks Bangladesh's return to international cricket, and they made a promising start by winning the first game of the series.
Pakistan, however, made a convincing start to the second ODI with a big opening partnership, and their middle-order batters, Mohammad Rizwan and Salman Ali Agha, did a fair amount of work to keep the scoreboard running. However, what happened after has shocked the cricketing world.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz stoops to the lowest to dismiss Pakistan's batter
Mehidy Hasan Miraz came back to bowl the 39th over of the spell, and Pakistan batters Salman Ali Agha and Mohammad Rizwan both looked forward to building a solid partnership. While Rizwan was nearing his half-century, Agha was going at a run-a-ball with the score of 64.
Rizwan played a straight shot right back towards the non-striker, and Salman Agha failed to dodge it, and the ball was stopped after it hit his pads. The Pakistani batter went to pick up the ball and hand it over to Mehidy Hasan Miraz as a part of sportsmanship, but the Bangladeshi all-rounder was nothing but competitive.
He instead picked the ball and threw it at the stumps, since Agha was out of his crease and appealed for a run-out. The umpire had to abide by the cricketing laws, and Agha was given out.
Salman Ali Agha tried to pick up the ball and give it back to the bowler, but the bowler ran him out. 😭

Mehidy Hasan Miraz dismissed Mohammad Rizwan in the same over
After the shocking dismissal, Salman Agha looked visibly agitated and left the field. This led to a collapse in the Pakistan innings, as Mohammad Rizwan, who was the only set batter in the crease, was dismissed by the Bangladesh skipper on the final ball of that over.
The former ODI skipper for Pakistan departed after a well-made 44, which once gave stability in the middle overs. However, just when Pakistan needed to accelerate in their slog overs, they kept losing wickets and were bowled out for just 274 runs after having made a good start.
Before Agha's dismissal, Pakistan was at 231/3, with Maaz Sadaqat, the young 20-year-old strokemaker, having handed the Greens a very promising start. He gave them a solid start with a century partnership with Pakistan's T20 World Cup hero Sahibzada Farhan.
Bangladesh handed Pakistan a humiliating loss in the 1st ODI
Pakistan had started the ODI series with a humiliating defeat in the first game. Nahid Rana, the lanky Bangladesh speedster, almost ran a rampage as Pakistan was bowled out for a score of 114 in just 30.4 overs. Bowling all-rounder Faheem Ashraf remained their highest scorer with 37 runs.
Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman picked up a wicket each, while Nahid Rana, the star of the game for the home side, dismissed 5 of the Pakistan batters. The skipper, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, also picked up three wickets in the match.
Bangladesh batter Tanzid Hasan scored an unbeaten half-century as they chased the total with 209 balls remaining. They took a convincing lead, winning the game by 8 wickets.
