New Delhi: During the second encounter of the ongoing T20 series between Pakistan & Ireland, pacemen Shaheen Shah Afridi faced hostile treatment from a fan who verbally abused him from the stands of Clontarf Cricket Club Stadium.
The unfortunate incident took place on Sunday when the fan used objectionable words for the Pak cricketer while he was leaving the dressing room and walking towards the ground. A video of the same is now doing rounds on social media.
Shaheen Afridi Confronts Fan for Abusing Him
Enraged by the man’s foul language against himself, Shaheen then immediately hit back at the fan and even alerted the security staff about his inappropriate behavior.
Unfortunately, things didn’t just end there as after a while, the allegedly Afghan national targeted the Pak pacer once again with absurd remarks.
This time however the security staff had enough of him as he quickly walked to the stands, found the aggressor & escorted him out of the stadium right away.
