A controversial moment unfolded in the Big Bash League as Pakistan batter Mohammad Rizwan was retired out by his own team, Melbourne Renegades, for slow scoring during their match against Sydney Thunder, where he scored 23 runs off 21 balls at number four, prompting captain Will Sutherland to make a purely tactical decision in the fast-paced T20 format, a move that sparked widespread criticism on social media and reignited debate over Rizwan’s and Babar Azam’s strike-rate concerns, with many fans calling it one of the most embarrassing moments of Rizwan’s T20 career.
