In the video, skipper Babar Azam can be heard calling his wicket-keeper batsman, Azam Khan, a “rhino” (“Ganda” in Hindi). Awkward!
The Video Evidence
The clip shows 7-8 Pakistani players practicing with a rugby ball. They’re supposed to catch the ball, right? While all the other players are on their toes, Azam Khan seems a bit relaxed.
That’s when Babar Azam points towards his young teammate and cracks the “rhino” joke.
Social Media Erupts
Azam Khan is taking the brunt of Babar’s comment, with many calling it body shaming or fat shaming. Since the video leak, social media has gone crazy, trolling Babar Azam.
Some folks think Babar was way out of line and shouldn’t have made such a comment. Others believe Azam Khan should focus on getting in better shape.
