The 43-year-old took his official X account to quote a fan post, containing pictures of Indian and Pakistani players in the IPL jerseys of the same teams, commenting about how “no Indian have such dreams.”
In the illustrious history of the IPL, Pakistan players have taken part in only the first edition of the tournament back in 2008. Some of the top names to play in the franchise T20 tournament were Sohail Tanvir and Kamran Akmal for Rajasthan Royals, Shahid Afridi for Deccan Chargers, Shoaib Akhtar for Kolkata Knight Riders, and Misbah-ul-Haq for Royal Challengers Bangalore, among others.
