T20 World Cup: '8th Wonder Of World', Ian Smith's Cheeky Dig At Gulbadin's On-field Drama
ICC T20 World Cup: After Afghanistan's thrilling win over Bangladesh in the last Super Eight encounter, which led them to their first ICC T20 World Cup semifinal, former New Zealand cricketer Ian Smith sarcastically called Gulbadin Naib the "8th wonder of the world" for his on-field drama.
Following the victory, questions are being raised about Gulbadin Naib’s cramp which occurred in the 12th over. The Bangladeshi side had just fallen two runs behind the DLS and rain had started to slowly fall down onto the field. Afghanistan’s head coach Jonathan Trott was seen signalling the players to slow down the game.
Almost instantly Naib grabbed his hamstring and fell to the ground in pain in the 12th over. The delay was caused in the match as Naib limped off the field and the game ultimately had to be stopped due to rain.
