ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's former speedster Shoaib Akhtar bashed an Indian anchor who tried to create a controversy out of Pakistan-Afghanistan relations.
Pakistan's Asif Ali and Afghanistan's Fareed Ahmad indulged in a heated argument during Pakistan vs Afghanistan contest in T20 Asia Cup 2022. The moment from the field went viral on social media with fans sharing their two cents on the matter.
Akhtar, while speaking on an Indian channel, called out the anchor for creating controversy. "It's our matter, Afghanistan people are our brothers. We will sort this matter ourselves, India should remain away from it," the cricketer-turned-analyst said.
Asif and Fareed weren't banned but fined 25 percent of their match fees. Asif will continue representing Pakistan in the remaining two matches of T20 Asia Cup 2022 including the final match.
