IND vs AFG | Twitter reacts as Mujeeb's big hit shuts up Rohit-Virat laughter after Dube's absurd slower ball
The confidence to reply with silence can be a source of great strength. Afghan star Mujeeb Ur Rahman pro𓆏ved this on Sunday as he hit Shivam Dube for a humongous six after the pacer’s preposterous slow ball, which drew great laughter from the Indian contingent, had deceived him earlier.
After a brilliant start by Afghanistan, things went a little haywire for the visitors courtesy of a few brilliant spells from Ravi Bishnoi, Axar Patel, and Arshdeep Singh. However, Sh🌼ivam Dube proved to be costly, conceding 36 runs in his three overs without any wicket to show for his efforts. Nevertheless, he did produce a sequence for the highlight reels late into the first innꦫings.
The third ball of the 18th over bowled by Dube was a back of the hand slower which almost looked like a dead ball. The ball hardly got any momentum after pitching and landed on the surface a second time beyond the crease even as Mujeeb swung blindly towards the leg side. The slower ball brought great amusement to skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli amongst others, indicated through laughter and claps from the veteran duo. However, the happiness was short-lived as Mujeeb struc✨k a giant six off🌟 the full delivery next up, launching the Kookaburra into the night sky beyond deep mid wicket.
Twitterverse was stunned at Mujeeb’s daring effort and took to social media to comment on the interesting ✤sequence of play.

Laughs everywhere!
Rohit Sharma advises Shivam Dube♐ to bowl in a different length and Dube gets an wicket in the very next ball. Hardik landya can never be him.

The way Rohit Sharma do captaincy is similar to of MS Dhoni. Both keeps the things simple and we have role clarity. When you have good captain, you can even push your limits.
People say them GOAT captains for a reason. 🫡
JJJJ
Letting Shivam Dube to bowl in 19th over tells lot ab✃out Rohit Shar🧔ma’s captaincy. He is becoming clueless to the core nowdays. When you have your main bowler Mukesh not bowling him fully shows lack of trust issues. Seriously this guy is an embarrassment now.
