The clip also showed Babar Azam asking Iftikhar Ahmed for Eidi. Mohammad Rizwan, after seeing this, joined in with the captain also.
Moreover, pacer Naseem Shah was seen distributing Eidi as well.
It is pertinent to mention that the fourth game of the five-match series ended without a result due to bad weather.
New Zealand – being sent to bat first – were 164-5 in 18.5 overs when the game was brought to a halt. Mark Chapman and opener Chad Bowes were standout players with the bat as they scored half-centuries.
