Young Pakistan bowler Mohammad Zeeshan’s celebration after taking a wicket in their ongoing U19 Asia Cup 2023 match against India is going viral on social media. The two teams are clashing at the ICC Academy ground in Dubai on December 10, 2023.
Pakistan U19 captain Saad Baig won the toss and chose to field first. Both India and Pakistan came into the contest after winning their respective opening group matches in the tournament. The last five ODI matches have seen India U19 win on four occasions and Pakistan U19 once.
Meanwhile, India posted 259/9 in 50 overs with Adarsh Singh (62), Uday Saharan (60), and Sachin Das (58) being the top scorers. For Pakistan, Mohammad Zeeshan starred with 4/46 in 10 overs, while Amir Hassan and Ubaid Shah took two wickets each.

However, Mohammad Zeeshan’s celebration after dismissing Rudra Patel has caught the internet on fire. The incident took place in 12th over. Rudra was looking to punch the ball through the covers but was beaten. The wicket-keeper made no mistake in grabbing the ball after it kissed the India star's bat.
The Pakistan pacer was extremely elated with the wicket but seemed to have let his emotions get the better of him a little. He was seen pumping his fist in the air while running past Patel extremely closely during his celebration.
