Pakistan batter Azam Khan faced a brutal trolling on social media after being dismissed for a golden duck during the T20 World Cup 2024 match against United States on Thursday. Azam, who has been struggling with his form for quite some time, came under heavy criticism from fans and experts after a string of low scores and fielding errors during the T20I series against England. In the T20 World Cup opener, Azam found himself under pressure as he came out to bat and was quickly trapped LBW by Nosthush Kenjige on the very first delivery. Social media users didn’t hold back in expressing their disappointment with his performance, with some even referencing the ongoing ‘nepotism’ debate surrounding him due to being the son of former Pakistan captain Moin Khan.

Azam Khan’s struggles continued as he failed to make an impact in the match, leading to a wave of memes and comments mocking his performance. Despite the backlash, Azam remains a key figure in the Pakistan cricket team, and his future performances will be under scrutiny as the T20 World Cup progresses.

Meanwhile, the United States’ victory over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup was a significant upset, with the match being decided in a thrilling Super Over after both teams ended with tied scores at the end of regular play. The USA’s success in the match showcased their growing prowess in the T20 format and raised excitement among fans about their prospects in the tournament.

The T20 World Cup 2024 has been full of surprises and intense competition, with teams from around the world vying for glory on the global stage. As the tournament unfolds, cricket enthusiasts eagerly await more thrilling matches and standout performances from players across different teams. Azam Khan’s early exit in the tournament may serve as a motivator for him to bounce back stronger and silence his critics with impactful performances in the upcoming matches.
