PAK vs ENG (Pic Source-X) Currently, the second test match between Pakistan and England is being played at Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan. In this match, Pakistan won the toss and decided to bat first. Former England captain Joe Root was seen shining the red ball over his teammate Jack Leach’s head on the first day of play in the second Test. The video of this action of Joe Root is going viral on social media. Let us tell you that after Covid-19, there is a ban on the use of saliva to shine the ball. Therefore players adopt different methods to maintain the shine and polish of the ball. This is not the first time Root has done something like this. Earlier in 2022 too, he had shined the ball over Leach’s head. He then did such a thing during England’s 2022 tour of Pakistan. Now once again Joe Root did this and forced all the cricket fans to laugh.
