In a heartwarming gesture, Pakistan captain Babar Azam won admiration as he presented his jersey to a fan following the conclusion of the second Test match against Sri Lanka in Colombo on July 27th.
Pakistan’s dominating performance in the 2nd Test, led by Abdullah Shafique’s double century and Noman Ali’s seven wickets in the second innings, resulted in a resounding victory by an innings and 222 runs, sweeping the hosts. With this triumph, the Pakistan cricket team now sits at the top of the WTC points table with 24 points.
In an immensely popular viral video, Babar Azam can be witnessed delighting one of his fans by generously gifting his jersey on the sidelines before heading back to the dressing room. The young fan was left thrilled by the heartwarming gesture from the Pakistan captain.
Despite the video going viral, some individuals resorted to trolling the Pakistan captain, claiming he was wearing a ‘Sports Bra’. However, it’s important to clarify that it’s not a Sports Bra but rather a highly advanced piece of technology meant to support players and clubs in their physical development, helping them perform at their best. Notably, footballers like Lionel Messi have also been seen using similar technology.
