A rare sight unfolded on day one of the first Test between Pakistan and South Africa at the Gaddafi Stadium here on Sunday when home fans cheered the dismissal of their own captain, Shan Masood.
The reason: Babar Azam, Pakistans star batter and fan favorite, was next at the crease.
The stadium erupted in applause and cheering as the former skipper walked in, though he fell soon after tea for 23.
