It was not the case with New Zealand batter Daryl Mitchell who missed out on an opportunity to get Babar Azam caught out for 12. A video of him dropping Pakistan skipper Babar Azam’s catch right after yawning went viral.
The viral video showed Daryl Mitchell fielding at first slip. He was yawning as Babar Azam prepared to face Michael Bracewell’s delivery. The spinner found the edge as the Pakistan captain tried to play a cover drive.
The ball travelled to Daryl Mitchell, who failed to grab it.
