Pakistan Player Drops Catch, Misses Run Out; Gives Vaibhav Sooryavanshi 2 Lifelines

• In the ICC Men’s U19 World Cup Super Six match, Pakistan's Huzaifa Ahsan dropped a catch and missed a run-out chance on the same ball, giving Vaibhav Sooryavanshi two lifelines.
• Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, opening for India, scored 30 runs off 22 balls before being dismissed by Mohammad Sayyam.
• The incident occurred on the third ball of the eighth over when Sooryavanshi skied a shot, which Huzaifa Ahsan failed to catch, and then missed a run-out opportunity as Sooryavanshi was out of his crease.
• Indian skipper Ayush Mhatre and opening partner Aaron George were also dismissed shortly after Sooryavanshi.
• A trend of Indian and Pakistani captains avoiding handshakes at the toss continued, with Ayush Mhatre not shaking hands with Farhan Yousaf.
