Watch- Mohammad Nabi-Azmatullah Omarzai create Pakistan-like comical run out vs Australia

In a bizarre moment, Afghanistan all-rounder Mohammad Nabi became the victim of an unfortunate run-out in their do-or-die group match against Australia in the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025 on Friday, February 28, at the Gaddafi Cricket Stadium in Lahore.

Australian pacer Spencer Johnson bowled a short delivery down the leg side, which the wicketkeeper Josh Inglis failed to collect cleanly, deflecting the ball to his left. This prompted Azmatullah Omarzai and Mohammad Nabi to take a quick bye, but the all-rounder was sent back midway.
