Pakistan players ignited a war of words between Indo-Pak cricket fans on social media as they ignored the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 final between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH).
In a video posted by a Pakistan-based sports reporter, the Pakistan players who are involved in a four-match T20I series in England were spotted walking past the television, on which the IPL 2024 final was played. None of the players seemed interested in taking a glimpse of the match.
“Pakistani Players ignored IPL Final 😳😳,” the Pakistan journalist commented on the video.

“Unhe pata hai Aukat se bahar hai to kya matlab dekhkr dil jalane se😂,” an Indian fan commented.
“League ki aukat nh k usay pak players dekhy,” responded the Pakistan journalist.
“I ignored Shah Rukh Khan once at the airport. Poor guy, now all his life, career, and achievements have gone in vain, and he has to live the rest of his life with the guilt that I ignored him 😭😭,” another fan said.
“IPL is ignoring them from years uska kya??,” a fourth fan commented.
Pakistan currently train the four-match T20I series against England 0-1. The first and second match was abandoned due to rain with the fourth match slated to take place in London on Thursday.
