Apart from his word on a great foot forward by Green Shirts, the performer, in particular, could not get enough of the impressive game by the T20 debutante and fast bowler. “Naseem Shah not letting us miss Shaheen’s [Shah Afridi] first over,” he wrote on the micro-blogging site.

Moreover, the singer – impressed by the game put up by Pakistani cricketers – praised the entire team saying, “I can’t tell you guys how proud I am of the evolution [of] this Pakistan cricket team.”
I can’t tell you guys how proud i am of the evolution this pakistan cricket team. Few years ago i would lose hope with 148 runs on the board, but look at the fight these boys are putting up. This is EXACTLY what we were missing all these years. 💚🇵🇰 #indvpak

Concluding the series of tweets, Asim Azhar advised the cricket enthusiasts in both countries, not to make a big deal out of the game, and treat it like any other sport, which has both victory and defeat as part of it.
It is pertinent to mention that the neighbouring rivals, India and Pakistan, clashed against each other in the second match of Asia Cup 2022 on Sunday, where Men in Blue claimed victory over Green Shirts after a tough fight.
GOOD FIGHT BOYS @TheRealPCB 💚🇵🇰 Pakistan is so proud of you!!! Very unlucky tonight. Well played India 👏🏽 #indvpak
