“Disha Patani Ko Takkar Dega”, Twitter Users Troll As Babar Azam Takes Off His Jersey For Fan

The dress choices of Babar Azam have drawn a lot of attention online, with hawk-eyed users frequently pointing out his unique and occasionally odd attire. This time, he removed his jersey to present it to a fan following Pakistan’s victory over Sri Lanka in the second Test at Colombo. The item he was wearing underneath, which looked to be a sports bra, was what got people’s attention online, sparking interest and laughter on social media.

The majority of the comments were focused on the query, “What is he wearing under the jersey?” while some users humorously referred to him as “barbie azam” and made comparisons to the Bollywood diva Disha Patani.

Jokes apart, it turns out that the  garment  in question is actually a “GPS Vest,” a crucial piece of athletic gear. Athletes frequently use these cutting-edge fitness trackers to track and evaluate their on-field performance. The GPS, accelerometer, and magnetometer-equipped vest has a pod that is normally worn between the shoulder blades. During practises and games, it keeps track of a variety of statistics, including the total number of sprints, top speed, and distance travelled. To analyse and enhance performance, these statistics are then contrasted with those of professional athletes.

Even though GPS vests are fairly popular among football players and other athletes, few people were aware of Babar’s GPS vest’s function. The Pakistani captain, it was explained in several online comments, was really wearing a GPS tracker that keeps track of heart rate and caloric expenditure, refuting the ‘bra’ jokes.
