Dropped chances always lead to frustrating moments for the team and the bowler in question. An example of this was shown in the Asia Cup match between India and Pakistan as Abhishek Sharma’s dropped catch led to Hardik Pandya taking out his anger on Sanju Samson in the next delivery.

‌The highly anticipated game between India and Pakistan has begun with the two sides playing their first game of the Super Fours stage. The two teams had already faced each other in the league stage, where the Men in Blue dominated the Green Shirts in the first encounter of the game. Though these two teams might be in contrasting positions in the T20I format, there is always some drama in the iconic South Asian rivalry games.
One of these dramatic moments came in the first over itself, which was bowled by Hardik Pandya. In the third delivery of the over, Pakistani opener Sahibzada Farhan gave a simple catch to Abhishek Sharma at deep third man, which the latter spilt after misjudging the ball terribly. It was no surprise as the Indian all-rounder was frustrated after the dropped chance and took out his anger on Sanju Samson as Sahibzada survived after skying another ball, which landed on no man's land. This dropped vatch turned out to be crucial as Sahibzada Farhan started to find some rhythm after the dropped chance and survived the first six overs.
Hardik not happy after poor efforts on the field

Few batsmen carry enough confidence from the team management to keep playing after three consecutive ducks, especially in Pakistan. Yet, the Men in Green stuck with Saim Ayub for the India clash in Dubai on Sunday, but had to pay for it by losing the services of Fakhar Zaman early on.
