The video got the attention of both Pakistani and Indian cricket fans.
A fan wrote, “Life is too short. Just say 152-0 and move on,” while the other commented, “Another victory is coming on 9 June.”
Meanwhile, a user wrote, “India won 6 times, and Pakistan has won only a single T20 World Cup match against India.”
Additionally, Babar and Rizwan's incredible partnership in 2021 ended Pakistan's losing streak against India in the World Cup.
The opening batters led Pakistan to a historic victory by 10 wickets against the cricket rivals India. The wicket-keeper batsman Mohammad Rizwan made 78 runs, while skipper Babar made a contribution of 68 runs.
