Dropping easy catches, fielding misses, misunderstanding boundaries by two fielders — fielding antics are part of Pakistan's cricketing culture! Forgetting these, the party has made headlines many times. Generations go, new generations come but these mistakes are not to be corrected. Pakistan again made a similar mistake in the preparation match of the World Cup.

This time the mistake in fielding happened in the second warm-up match between Pakistan and Australia at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The 23rd over of Australia's innings was going on. Harris Rauf was bowling to Marnus Labuschenne. It was then that the ridiculous fielding display was witnessed.

Two Pakistani fielders Mohammad Wasim Jr. and Mohammad Nawaz went to stop the ball rolling through square leg. Both thought the other would stop the ball. But the ball rolled towards the boundary before breaking foul. Even then there was a chance to stop the ball and save four. But the ball went out of bounds before the two confused fielders could return, giving Australia 4 runs.

Netizens are laughing and criticizing Pakistan's ridiculous fielding. Where Indian batsman Shikhar Dhawan also joined. Posting the video of the fielding mistake, he jokingly wrote, 'Pakistan and fielding—a love story that never ends.' He also added a smiley emoji.

Another person named Rishi wrote sarcastically, 'Pakistan is the best in the world in fielding.' 

On this day, however, along with bad fielding, the Pakistani fielder also saved some great boundaries. Hamza posted a video of a similar four save and captioned it, 'Pakistan fielding at its best. This is up and this is down.'
