During the riveting Boxing Day Test clash between Australia and Pakistan at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground, spectators were treated to a moment of unexpected hilarity on Day 2. While it’s a common sight for fans to enthusiastically react to glimpses of themselves on the large stadium screens, a young couple had a unique response when the camera turned its focus toward them.

In a lighthearted scene that unfolded during the 7th over of Pakistan’s first innings, the camera captured a couple in the stands. The young man, seated with a towel draped over his lap, and the girl leaning comfortably on him, suddenly found themselves on the big screen. What ensued was pure comedy as the duo, seemingly unprepared for the spotlight, reacted in a manner quite contrary to the usual cheers and waves. The guy, quick on his feet, opted to shield his face with the towel, while the girl cleverly averted her gaze, attempting to avoid being easily recognizable by the amused crowd.
