Overview
- During a third-umpire check, Ramiz Raja was heard saying in Hindi, “Ye out hoga to drama karega,” about Babar Azam.
- The incident occurred on Day 1 of the Pakistan–South Africa opening Test at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
- The remark came as an initial LBW call against Babar was overturned after replays confirmed no bat involved.
- Babar was later adjudged LBW to Simon Harmer on review when ball-tracking showed the ball hitting the leg stump.
- The clip circulated widely on social platforms, drawing criticism of broadcast conduct, and reports also noted Babar reached 3,000 WTC runs with no formal response announced.
