What started as a tense moment in the Bangladesh vs Pakistan Test in Sylhet has now spilled far beyond the stadium, with Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis joining the online banter around Mohammad Rizwan. A clip of Stoinis mocking Rizwan’s repeated interruptions during a casual gully cricket game has exploded on social media, days after the Pakistan batter’s on-field exchange with Bangladesh players became one of the talking points of the Test series.
The controversy traces back to the second Test between Pakistan national cricket team and Bangladesh national cricket team at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, where Bangladesh completed a crushing 2-0 series whitewash over Pakistan.

The incident gained another layer after videos surfaced online showing Marcus Stoinis recreating Rizwan’s behaviour during a casual gully cricket game. In the viral clip, Stoinis hilariously steps away multiple times before facing the ball, imitating Rizwan’s repeated delays from the Sylhet Test.
