Pakistan had won the title of ‘Hong Kong Super Sixes’ on 9 November. This team, captained by Abbas Afridi, defeated Kuwait by 43 runs in the final. After this, a post of Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif started going viral, in which he announced a one-week national holiday to celebrate this. But what is the truth of this post? Know.

Fans were also surprised to see the post of Pakistan Prime Minister going viral. After all, how can Pakistan celebrate so much after winning a tournament like Hong Kong Super Sixes, how can it declare a week-long national holiday? Still, this is Pakistan and many such strange things or announcements keep happening there. But the truth of this post is completely different.

In Shehbaz Sharif’s post which is going viral, he has written, “Congratulations to the Pakistan cricket team on winning the Hong Kong Super Sixes. Although we cannot defeat the Indian Commentators XI, but this victory is no less than the World Cup victory. I want to declare a week-long national holiday on this happy occasion.”

Congratulations Pakistan cricket team on winning the Hong Kong Super Sixes
Although we can’t beat Indian commentators XI, this victory is nothing short of a World Cup win!

I would like to declare 1 week national holiday on this joyful occasion.

— Shahbez Sharif (@HeraHimanshu) November 9, 2025

What is the truth of the post?

In the era of social media, fake news also spreads rapidly, in the era of AI it is difficult for people to identify which video is true and which is false. Nowadays one can also get blue tick along with subscription, in such a situation it is difficult to identify real and fake account.

The account of Shahbaz Sharif from which this post has been made is a fake account. She has only 300 followers whereas the real account has 6.8 million followers. So the post and claim of one week holiday in Pakistan after winning Hong Kong Super Sixes is wrong.

Pakistan had lost to India

Pakistan had lost only to Team India in the Hong Kong Super Sixes Tournament. The team captained by Dinesh Karthik had defeated Pakistan by 2 runs under the Duckworth-Lewis rule in the match played on 7 November.

In the final match of the Asia Cup of India and Pakistan, India defeated the Pakistani team that from Pakistani Defense Minister Khwaja Asif to Pakistani captain Salman Ali Aga, all started to furore their defeat on the Indian team. On the one hand, the Pakistani Defense Minister wrote on the social media platform X that by destroying the culture and spirit of cricket, Indian Prime Minister Modi is ending the possibilities of peace and resolving issues in the subcontinent, while Pakistani captain Salman Ali Aga accused the Indian team that the Indian team has insulted the Pakistani team, not the Pakistani team.

However, in this press conference, Salman Ali Aga himself exposed the terrorism of the Pakistani cricket team. He announced that the entire Pakistani team will donate their match fees to the citizens killed in India’s attack. We are saying this because on May 7, during the Operation Sindoor of India, the terrorist organization Jaish -e -Mohammed’s terrorist, Jaish leader Masood Azhar’s family and Lashkar -e -Taiba terrorists were killed in the attack on Pakistan on May 7. After that, the next three days, India attacked the airbase of Pakistan, in which army personnel and officers were killed. That is, those whom Salman Ali Aga is calling an ordinary citizen was actually the family of Jaish and Lashkar terrorist and terrorist Masood Azhar.

Terrorist Masood Azhar’s family destroyed in India’s strike
For example, a total of 14 people of terrorist Masood Azhar’s family were killed in India’s strike in Markaz Subhanallah, the headquarters of terrorist organization Jaish -e -Mohammed, including terrorist Yusuf Azhar, a terrorist in Kandahar Hijack of terrorist Masood Azhar and Mohammed Jamil Ahmad, the terrorist Yusuf Azhar and the Jesh Headquarter in Bahawalpur. Apart from this, Hamza Jamil, a terrorist living in the same Jaish headquarters, was also killed in India’s strike, who was the son of terrorist Mohammad Jamil Ahmed and saw the operation of Jaish -e -Mohammed in Kashmir. At the same time, terrorist Huazifa Azhar was also killed in the Indian strike, who was the adopted son of Ibrahim Azhar, brother of terrorist Masood Azhar and used to see Jaish -e -Mohammed in Afghanistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Pakistani captain announced
Similarly, in the strike of India, Yakub Mughal, the operator of Markaz Bilal, Muzaffarabad, was the son of Commander Asghar Khan Kashmir in the Pok of Jash -e -Mohammed and Hasan’s partner was also killed. Terrorists Mudassir and Abu Ukasa died in Lashkar’s headquarters Markaz Taiba located in Muridke, they used to give weapons to the terrorists. Now the way the Pakistani captain has announced that the match fees of the entire team will go to the alleged citizens killed in the Indian strike, then one thing is clear that the Pakistani cricket team is honoring the Pakistani cricket team after 4 and a half months after killing these AK-47s running the factory of terror against India, like the Pakistani Army and the government had offered them offerings.

Pakistani team love with terrorists
Although the Pakistani team’s love with the terrorists is not new, when former Pakistan captain and former Prime Minister Imran Khan used to play, due to the support of the Taliban, he became famous in South Asia by the name Taliban Khan, but now in the changed situation after Operation Sindoor, Pakistani cricketer Sahibzada Farhan once fosters a gun with a match with India after the match with India after the match with India after the match with India after the match with India. The Pakistani captain announces the entire team’s match fees to donate the names of those alleged citizens. These were not only a terrorist caught AK-47, but many of them were members of the family of global terrorist Masood Azhar who are responsible for the death of hundreds of Indians.

Indian batsman Tilak Verma played an unbeaten half -century and played the role of a troubleshooter. Due to this, India won the Asia Cup for the ninth time by defeating arch rival Pakistan by five wickets in the final. After this match, the Pak cricket team is being thrown on the Pakistani media. The anger of news channels to cricket experts is clearly visible. A Pakistani cricket expert on the matter said that they should have an inquiry. What is its thinking? Does it have to do a job in IPL?

The recent defeat of Pakistan cricket team has spread anger and disappointment between fans and experts. The Pakistani media raised questions on the team’s performance. He says that the team started well without losing wickets for 84 runs, but the entire team collapsed for 146 runs. This performance has raised a big question – is it just a bad luck or the players and PCB’s Poor MindSet? Pak media says that these cricketers are playing with the people of Pakistan. An expert said that during the match, the team batted very slowly in the powerplay. It is quite embarrassing to score just 12 runs with a bowler like Dubey. Cricket experts say that instead of adopting an aggressive attitude in the powerplay, the team lost the opportunity.

Constant failure of middle order
The middle order of Pakistan has once again come under question. After the match, players like Hussain Talak and Salman Ali are being criticized. According to Pakistani experts, they are constantly disappointing the team. Cricket lovers say that the understanding of selection and batting order is wrong.

Fingers on captaincy and coaching
Pakistani media is also questioning Pak team management and captaincy. Meanwhile, the fans allege that the basic strategy of T20 cricket is not visible in the team. The decision of left-right combination and correct batting order was not taken correctly.

Bad Luck or Poor Mindset?
Many people are considering it as bad luck, but experts say that repeated mistakes can not be just luck. It is clearly a sign of Poor MindSet and weak strategy.

Disappointment of fans and pressure on PCB
Pakistani fans have strongly criticized the team’s performance on social media. People are saying that this is not the international team but the school level team is looking. Now the pressure on PCB is increasing that they will inquire on the failure of the team and seek answers from the players and management.

Why did ICC suspend USA Cricket Board?

According to reports, the ICC has taken this action after repeatedly violating its obligations as an ICC member. However, the board has given permission that the USA cricket team will be able to participate in their tournament. According to the reports, the ICC was receiving complaints against this board for some time. This was the first time when the ICC sent a notice to the USA Cricket Board in the annual conference held in Sri Lanka last year.

This year there was a meeting in Singapore, in which the ICC gave this board 3 months to prepare a systematic structure. This will not affect the cricket tournament to be held in Los Angeles Olympics 2028.

In the meeting held on July 19 before this action, the ICC gave 3 months more time, but still the USA board remained focused on its arbitrariness. Now the ICC suspended the USA Cricket Board taking big action.

Asia cup 2025: In the Asia Cup 2025, the bat of Pakistan’s young opener Sam Ayub is completely silent. Ayub could not even open an account in all three group matches of the tournament. Returned the pavilion against Oman on the very first ball, he was also dismissed against India on Golden Duck and kept playing only two balls in the match against the United Arab Emirates without scoring runs. Three consecutive zero has put his batting in the dock.

However, Ayub’s bowling has been giving some relief. His spin has taken 6 wickets so far, but his frequent failures as an opener have remained a matter of concern for Pakistan. Meanwhile, former Pakistan team captain Rashid Latif has given an interesting statement defending him.

“Sometimes sitting on a camel, the dog bites” – Rashid Latif

Rashid Latif said in a conversation with Revsportz, “Sometimes the player’s time comes that even if he is sitting on a camel, the dog bites.

Latif further said that Ayub is constantly being dismissed in unfortunate ways, sometimes caught out, sometimes shot timing disturbances. He further said, “Every player has bad time. He will boil in a big match. Either it will break or burst.”

How did you get out Sam Ayub?

Oman Match – Faisal Shah caught out on a boom ball.

India match- While playing a shot off Hardik Pandya, Jaspreet Bumrah was caught.

UAE Match – Junaid Siddiqui’s ball caught out at third man.

On all three occasions, both Ayub’s shot selection and luck did not support him.

Pakistan’s entry in Super-4

Despite poor form, Pakistan has made its place in Super-4. Both India and Pakistan teams from Group-A have reached the next phase. Pakistan defeated UAE by 41 runs in their last group match and cut the ticket for Super-4. Now everyone’s eyes are on the India-Pakistan match on September 21, where fans will hope that Sam Ayub’s bat finally broke the silence.
