My Daughter Was Waiving Tiranga During IND Vs PAK Asia Cup Match: Shahid Afridi

Islamabad: Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has revealed on a television news channel that his daughter was waving the Tiranga during the Super 4 match between India and Pakistan in the recently-concluded Asia Cup 2022.

The former Pakistani all-rounder said that there was a shortage of Pakistan flags at the Dubai venue, so his daughter had to wave India’s flag during the game. While India failed to make it into the finals, Pakistan lost to Sri Lanka who sealed their 6th Asia Cup title on Sunday.

“My wife told me that there were barely 10% Pakistani fans in the stadium and the rest were Indian fans. Pakistani flags were not available there so my younger daughter was waving the Indian flag. I received the video, but I was unsure about whether to share it online or not,” Shahid Afridi said on Samaa TV.

Pakistan failed to capitalize on the toss and impressive start with the ball as the Babar Azam-led side suffered a 23-run defeat in the Asia Cup 2022 final on Sunday in Dubai.
