Ex-SA Captain's Commentary Blunder: Calls Shan Masood India's CaptainSaralnama

: Former South Africa captain Shaun Pollock made a big mistake during commentary on day 1 of the Pakistan vs South Africa Test in Lahore. He called Pakistan's Shan Masood the 'captain of India'. This happened when Pollock saw a fan's 'King Babar' banner. He was surprised fans wanted Masood out to see Babar Azam bat. Masood scored 76 runs before getting out. Babar made 23. At stumps, Pakistan were 313/5. Mohammad Rizwan (62*) and Salman Agha (52*) helped Pakistan recover from 199/5. The match is being played at Gaddafi Stadium.
