Indian Cricket Fans defend Pakistani Captain Sarfaraz over body shaming row
Pakistan captain Sarfaraz has been facing flak for Pakistan's poor performance at World Cup 2019 especially after their loss to Team India in the last match. He has been body shamed repeatedly by Pakistani fans.
It started when images of the Pakistan captain yawning on the field while Team India was batting went viral on social media, leading to severe backlash and trolling.

In the video, a disrespectful fan can be seen requesting Sarfaraz Ahmed for a selfie before calling him "fat like a pig". Safaraz, was seen ignoring the insulting jibe and walking off with his son in his arms.
This gesture from Sarfaraz has gathered a lot of sympathy for him with many celebrities from both the rival nations coming forward in his support. This large group of people included Indian cricket fans as well.
