In a moment that resonated profoundly within the cricketing community, Mohammad Rizwan, Pakistan’s remarkable batsman, displayed his incredible skills by leading his team to a record-breaking victory in the ODI World Cup match against Sri Lanka. However, the following day, he faced criticism from fans for expressing his support for Gaza.
As Pakistan found themselves presented with the enormous challenge of chasing down 345 runs, Rizwan stood as the cornerstone of the team’s batting order. He entered the pitch with Pakistan in a tough position, having lost two wickets for a measly 37 runs. The weight of the situation was clear, yet Rizwan exhibited steadfast coolness as he embarked on an outstanding collaboration with Abdullah Shafique.
After achieving his century, Rizwan dedicated his remarkable achievement to the people of Gaza. Following the victorious match, he shared his heartfelt emotions on Twitter. He wrote, “This was for our brothers and sisters in Gaza. Happy to contribute to the win. Credits to the whole team and especially Abdullah Shafique and Hassan Ali for making it easier. Extremely grateful to the people of Hyderabad for the amazing hospitality and support throughout.”

Rizwan’s extraordinary performance gained worldwide acclaim, although it also aroused controversy, particularly among some Indian supporters. They voiced disappointment, underlining Rizwan’s show of solidarity with Gaza, which they claimed indirectly backed the acts of persons from Gaza. In light of the recent tragic occurrences during Simchat Torah, it becomes necessary to draw attention to the unfortunate acts of violence against innocent Israeli residents. Those Indian fans who ardently supported Rizwan and the Pakistan team last night should now explore a different perspective. It’s vital to remember that the nation they were applauding for has stayed consistent, and this act stands as a tribute to that unchanging worldview.
Here is how fans trolled Rizwan’s tweet:
