Former India stars stood like a single unit and expressed their displeasure in playing against Pakistan in the ongoing edition of the World Championship of Legends in Birmingham. Both the teams were to face each other on Sunday but the likes of Harbhajan Singh, Yusuf Pathan, Shikhar Dhawan, and others refused to play due to the political tensions against Pakistan, resulting in the match being called-off. The WCL organisers shared a statement on their X account, detailing the decision of cancellation and said their intention while conducting the match was to recreate some “happy memories.”
As the match between India and Pakistan got cancelled, a picture of Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn with Pakistan great Shahid Afridi is now going viral on social media. It is worth noting that Ajay is also a co-owner of the ongoing WCL.
Ajay’s picture with Afridi has created a lot of buzz as the fans are slamming him for meeting and posing with the Pakistan cricketer, who mocked the Indian army during the border tensions between the two countries.
