In a moment that caught the attention of cricket enthusiasts during the recently concluded Third T20I of the ongoing Pakistan tour of New Zealand at Seddon Park, a peculiar incident unfolded as Pakistan’s cricketer Azam Khan strode out to the crease. The anticipation was palpable as the young gun aimed to showcase his prowess with the bat. His entry into the playing arena added a layer of excitement to the match, with fans eager to witness his performance.
‘Big Show’ entry of Azam Khan
The incident unfolded shortly after Fakhar Zaman‘s dismissal, paving the way for Azam to enter the batting crease. What added a distinctive touch to this moment was the DJ’s choice of the ‘Here is the Big Show’ WWE entrance theme as the right-handed batter made his way to the middle. This musical selection, associated with the renowned wrestler Big Show, stirred speculation among fans, who suggested a playful nod to the visual similarities between Azam and Big Show, both known for their robust physiques.
Despite the whimsical musical interlude, Azam’s time at the crease proved short-lived, as he contributed only ten runs before departing. The convergence of cricket and entertainment, marked by the DJ’s creative soundtrack choice, added an element of humour and light-heartedness to the cricketing spectacle at the cricketing arena.
