WATCH: Fans leave stadium after Babar Azam's dismissal in Champions One-Day Cup match

Pakistan’s white-ball captain, Babar Azam, delivered a valiant performance but was unable to prevent a heavy defeat for the Stallions against the Markhors in their second Champions One-Day Cup match on Sunday.

Azam scored a steady 45 from 44 balls, but his efforts were eclipsed as the Stallions faltered in their chase of 232, ultimately collapsing for a mere 105 in 23.4 overs.

However, everyone had a nostalgic moment after his stadium as a video captured the noticeable departure of fans from the stadium, which soon went viral on social media, reflecting the crowd’s disappointment.

The same kind of visuals were a norm when Shahid Afridi used to get out.
