The third ODI match resulted in Pakistan’s victory against South African on Wednesday. An unplanned off-field incident became the most remarkable phenomenon of the day. A South African cricket all-rounder Wiaan Mulder received the ‘Catch of the Match’ prize in a video seen by millions who found it entertaining worldwide.
The video shows an official presenting Mulder with a check payment of 1 lakh PKR which converts to around ₹31,000. The video shows Mulder requesting the official to present the check with an upright position during their photo opportunity. The official immediately readjusts the check shortly after Mulder changes its orientation. The check undergoes periodic repositioning between this duo throughout their repetitive exchange which results in a special yet amusing social media entertainment.

Many viewers on social media reacted to this video through mockery about both the gameplay scenario and the monetary prize award.
The user posted this sarcastic message under the post: “Champions Trophy 2025 is going to be a circus… the Pakistani way.” The other person laughed about the international contest payment by describing it as “A check of ₹31,000 for an international match?”Seriously?” The viewers found fault with the small prize money when they said “100,000 PKR equals $358 USD?” That’s barely a donation.”
