ICC World Cup: Pakistani cricket fan asked not to cheer for his country at Bengaluru stadium

When Australia and Pakistan played in the World Cup on Friday in Bengaluru, a Pakistani guy was instructed not to yell “Pakistan Zindabad.” A policeman is shown in widely distributed web footage requesting that the Pakistani man refrain from supporting his side during the international cricket competition, which has drawn cricket enthusiasts from all over the world to India to support their nations.

The Pakistani man made an unsuccessful attempt to reason with the policeman. In the video, he is seen questioning why he is unable to support his side by yelling “Pakistan Zindabad,” whereas Indian fans may scream “Bharat Mata ki jai.”

The policeman answered, “Bharat Mata ki jai good, but no Pakistan Zindabad.”

“Pakistan Zindabad is undoubtedly what fans from Pakistan will say. How much more can they say? The policeman is informed by the fan, but he doesn’t change his position. Moreover, he declines to give the camera his instructions again, perhaps not realizing that he is already being filmed.

On social media, the exchange’s footage has gone viral and sparked conflicting opinions. Over half a million people have watched the video on the microblogging site X.
Several X users requested that the ICC look into the event, which happened on October 20 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, in the comments section.
