Pakistani cricketers have taken to trolling Indians by referencing the phrase “fantastic tea” in a light-hearted manner.
According to details, leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed offered tea to fellow players during a team gathering. Babar Azam, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Fakhar Zaman and Mohammad Amir were among those present and joined in the banter.
Separately, former Pakistan cricket captain Shahid Afridi has broken his silence with a powerful appeal for peace. In a statement, Afridi stressed that sports transcend borders, religion, and politics, and must not be used to escalate conflict.
“Today, the game itself is under attack,” said Afridi, lamenting the recent disruptions in regional cricket. “The PSL has been moved to Dubai, the IPL has been suspended, and now even stadiums are becoming targets.” He was referring to a reported drone incident near Rawalpindi Stadium, which he believes highlights how cricket, once a bridge between nations, is now caught in the crossfire.
