During the 18th over of India's chase against Pakistan in the Champions Trophy clash, spinner Abrar Ahmed provided his team a much-needed breakthrough. He dismissed star batter Shubman Gill with a carrom ball which left the India vice-captain completely clueless. Former India cricketer who was in the commentary box during the dismissal said the delivery reminded him of R Ashwin's carrom-ball or the flicker.

Pakistan fans were uplift after the dismissal but what shocked everyone was the celebration from the spinner after taking Gill's wicket. Abrar signalled to Gill to go back in the dressing room. At the non-striker end, Virat Kohli was also left stunned with the dismissal which ended Shubman Gill's knock of 46 off 52 balls. Watch the video here...
