India vs Afghanistan Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2024: In the Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2024, the semi-final match was played between India A and Afghanistan on Friday. In this match, Afghanistan, playing first, had scored a huge score of 206 runs. But during this innings, an IPL star was badly beaten. The name of this player is nothing else but Rahul Chahar, who is in the news for wrong reasons after giving away 31 runs in a single over.
Washing of IPL stars
This incident is of the 13th over of Afghanistan’s innings, in which Rahul Chahar was bowling the third over of his spell. Till this time Afghanistan’s first wicket had not even fallen. Both Zubaid Akbari and Sadiqullah Atal had completed their respective fifties. Before this over, Chahar had given 17 runs in 2 overs, but in the 13th over of the innings, he bowled not 6 but 8 balls. In this he gave away 31 runs including four sixes.
Atal took a single run on the first ball of the over, but Akbari hit a six on the very next ball. Chahar then hit a no-ball, on which Akbari took a single. Taking advantage of the free hit, Atal hit a six, but the surprising thing was that it was also a no-ball. With increased morale, Atal turned the bat on the next ball and the ball once again crossed the boundary. Chahar had given away 22 runs in just 3 balls. 3 runs came on the next 2 balls, Akbari again hit a six on the last ball and scored a total of 31 runs in the over.
Rahul Chahar’s most expensive spell
Rahul Chahar has now become the bowler who has bowled the most expensive spell for India A. In this semi-final match against Afghanistan A, he gave away 48 runs while bowling 3 overs. In the same match, Aaqib Khan also gave away only 48 runs, but Chahar’s economy rate was much worse than him.
