Meanwhile, premier Indian pacer Deepak Chahar is facing some heavy criticism on social media by Indian fans. Chahar was spotted abusing his fellow teammate Mohammad Siraj after missing out on a straightforward catching opportunity at the boundary line. Chahar’s ill-mannered behavior did not impress the fans.
The incident took place in the last over of the game, with David Miller being the batter. Mohammad Siraj, who was fielding at the square-leg region successfully caught the ball but did not manage to show much-needed game awareness in the heat of the moment, visibly stepping on the boundary rope. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma too had an animated reaction to the missed opportunity.
