Former Pakistan cricketer Ahmed Shahzad has harshly criticized all-rounder Saim Ayub for performing a baby-cradle celebration after dismissing India's 15-year-old opener Vaibhav Sooryavanshi during the men's cricket final at the Asian Games 2026. Shahzad questioned the necessity of such a gesture against a teenager and emphasized that Pakistan needs to show more determination and responsibility in high-pressure matches.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Shahzad expressed disappointment in Ayub's overall performance, citing the all-rounder's lackluster contributions with both bat and ball.
Additionally, Shahzad highlighted Ayub's errors, including dropping two catches during the match, one of which went to Abhishek Sharma. Sharma's 28-ball 61 proved decisive, earning him the Player of the Match award. Shahzad concluded by emphasizing the importance of catching and urged Ayub to perform better in future high-stakes encounters.
