In an intriguing 22nd match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, Afghanistan achieved a historic victory over Pakistan that marked their first-ever One-Day International (ODI) win against their arch-rivals. Although the match was nothing short of a spectacle, the aftermath brought an unexpected twist when Pakistan fans launched scathing attacks on Babar Azam and his team for subpar performance.

Afghanistan’s historic victory and Pakistan’s third consecutive loss

The cricket world witnessed an extraordinary game at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, where Afghanistan outperformed Pakistan, securing an impressive eight-wicket victory. Chasing down Pakistan’s formidable target of 283, Afghanistan’s win not only marked their second triumph in the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup but also a historic milestone for their cricketing journey.

On the other hand, Babar-led Pakistan faced their third consecutive defeat in the tournament, which didn’t go unnoticed by fans and experts.

Shinwari’s series of tweets criticizing Pakistan cricket team

In one of her tweets, Shinwari disassociated herself from supporting the Pakistan cricket team and termed them as the ‘Zimbabar cricket team’.

“Assalam o Alaikum, My name is Sehar Shinwari and I am Pakistani. I announce disassociation from any support to Zimbabar Cricket Team,” wrote Shinwari.

Shinwari further also called for Babar’s resignation in another tweet and wrote: “Babar Azam, you must resign and never play cricket again.”

In another harsh tweet, Shinwari expressed her disbelief over Pakistan’s loss to Afghanistan and even used a foul word to question the team and vent her frustration by writing, “Chalo India aur Australia se haar samajh aati hai magar Afghanistan se bhi? Kya ham koi ch****ye bethey huwey hain yahan par? (“We understand defeat from India and Australia, but from Afghanistan as well?”)

She didn’t stop here and even went on to write: “Pakistan Cricket, Rest in Peace.”
