Minutes after our batters failed to chase the target of 131, Asim Azhar took to his official handle to share his disappointment over the fixture. “Disappointed. No words. Absolutely no words,” the singer wrote on the micro-blogging site.


However, Azhar had the back of Babar Azam-led side, as he defended the team against ‘seasonal fans’.


In response to a fan who questioned him, “So how’s the backing them [Green Shirts] going now”, Azhar wrote, “Wish i was a seasonal fan like many others, would be really easy to hate/abuse and take out my frustration rn.”


“As much as I’m angry – this is still my team, thru the ups & thru the downs. The game was heartbreaking but these boys will always be my boys. Baaki sab ki apni marzi,” he added.

The singer also requested fans that they are open ‘to criticize’ but requested them not ‘to abuse’ the players.


He also pointed out, “We were very rubbish today. Big changes to be done!”
