Hardik Pandya Gives Animated Send-Off To Babar Azam During IND vs PAK Champions Trophy 2025 Clash – Watch
India’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya trapped big fish in the ongoing Champions Trophy 2025 game against Pakistan at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday, February 23. Pandya was spotted giving a fierce send-off to Pakistan’s star batter Babar Azam after scalping his wicket for 23 runs in Dubai. Babar started off well, hitting a boundary off Pandya’s previous delivery but then in the end India’s all-rounder had a last laugh.
During the ninth over of the game, Pandya came up with a good length delivery and Babar wanted to drive it towards cover but then ended up edging it towards wicket-keeper KL Rahul. Just after losing Babar Azam, opener batter Imam-ul-Haq also departed, kudos to Axar Patel’s rocket throw.

Pakistan came under a lot of pressure but the likes of Saud Shakeel and Mohammad Rizwan have been batting well. Shakeel has already hit a fifty and still going stronger in the middle alongside Rizwan.

Pakistan had a poor start in home conditions earlier on as they lost the opening game of the tournament against New Zealand by 60 runs.
