Before the match began today, on the 21st of March, Pakistan cricket team’s Head Coach Saqlain Mushtaq flexed his arms in the nets as he bowled couple of deliveries to pacer Shaheen Afridi, who was batting in the nets at that time.
The Pakistan Cricket Board posted a video on their social media channels today before the beginning of the 3rd Test match between Pakistan and Australia, where former Pakistan cricketer and now Head Coach of the team, Saqlain Mushtaq bowled to Shaheen Afridi in the nets.

While Saqlain Mushtaq continued to claim it a wicket, Shaheen refused to accept it as out, but many also supported Mushtaq’s claim.
