"I SAW MY WIFE CRYING" - PAKISTAN CAPTAIN RESPONDS TO THE TROLLS

On june 16, Sunday, Pakistan met their archrivals India on the field and lost to them by 89 runs. It wasn't a tight match as Pakistan failed to make an impact in all the three areas.

It is not just for their performance on the field but even their fitness levels, dietary habits, going out late at night, anything and everything has been used to hit back at them by angry fans who were clearly not impressed with their game.

Sarfaraz even had to face personal embarrassment when he was at a mall with his son and an individual walked up to him, recording a video on his phone. The fan went to the extent of calling him "as fat as a pig" all Sarfaraz could do there was walk off and ignore it.

“When I went back to the hotel I saw my wife was crying after watching the video. I tried to explain to her that this is just one video and that we have had people walk up to us and tell things. This is nothing serious we must be strong. All of this is a part of life, when we don’t perform well we will have to go through all this,” the Pakistan Captain said in a conversation with the ICC insider.

“Not just family members whoever saw the video have reacted against it. I would like to thank everyone who sent me tweets and messages of support and love on social media. We are grateful to everyone. Whatever we are today is because of our fans. If our fans support us, even we will perform better and stay motivated. I have always said that our Pakistani fans love us a lot. And we also know that when we win they will give us a lot of respect and when we lose, their anger is valid because they have expectations from us,” Sarfaraz further added.

“After losing the match against India, that one week that passed by, however, it was, our fans still came to Lord’s and supported the Pakistan team. They came to the hotel where we were staying and even met us outside and all of them told us one thing that we should concentrate on giving our best and leave the rest up to God,” Sarfaraz stated.
