WATCH: Nepal spinner sustains injury while mimicking Tabraiz Shamsi’s celebration in U19 Asia Cup 2024

The ACC U19 Asia Cup 2024 witnessed an eventful match between Nepal and Bangladesh at the ICC Academy Ground in Dubai  on Sunday (December 1). While Bangladesh cruised to a comfortable five-wicket victory, the encounter garnered attention due to an unusual incident involving Nepal spinner Yuvraj Khatri.

Yuvraj Khatri’s stunning performance and unfortunate injury

Yuvraj delivered a stellar bowling performance for Nepal but he failed to stop Bangladesh from chasing down a paltry total of 141. He claimed four of the five wickets to fall in the Bangladesh innings, finishing with impressive figures of 4/23 in six overs. However, it was not just his bowling that caught the eye – his unique celebrations made headlines as well.

After dismissing Md Farid Hasan Faysal, Yuvraj mimicked South African spinner Tabraiz Shamsi’s iconic celebration by taking off his right shoe and pretending to use it as a phone. The crowd and his teammates were visibly entertained.

Unfortunately, a few overs later, Yuvraj’s exuberant celebration turned disastrous. After trapping Md Rizan Hossan LBW, Yuvraj took off on a celebratory sprint, during which he twisted his left foot. The bowler immediately fell to the ground, grimacing in pain. Unable to continue, he was carried off the field on a teammate’s back, leaving fans concerned about his condition.
