Sarfaraz was slammed on social media for missing an easy stumping of Moeen Ali.
Pakistan wicket-keeper batsman Sarfaraz Ahmed was mercilessly trolled on social media over a missed stumping chance during the third T20I against England.
Sarfaraz, after sitting out in the first two T20Is, played the final and decisive match. He couldn't collect the ball properly after Moeen Ali stepped out of the crease and gave enough time to Ali to return back to safety.
Moeen went on to score 61 runs before getting dismissed in the penultimate over. Sarfaraz's mistake could have cost Pakistan the series, but a tight over by Wahab Riaz, in the end, ensured they leveled the series 1-1. Pakistan won the match by 5 runs.

However social media didn't let Sarfaraz get away easily after his folly of missing a simple stumping chance. The 33-year-old got upset with the posts and tweeted about the unnecessary attack on social media.
Responding to his tweet, Pakistan Test captain Azhar Ali came out in support. "Bhayya you have so many fans including me you will answer small number of people with your performance InshA Allah u have done so much in past for Pakistan and you will in future thanks for giving positive energy throughout the tour... stay strong.", he wrote.
