Pakistan's former keeper-batter, Kamran Akmal, has encountered criticism after passing a few derogator comments on India's pace bowler Arshdeep Singh on Live TV during the India vs Pakistan match in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. The match was played at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York, where both teams had an epic clash, and India won the game by six runs.
During the match, Akmal was talking to the anchor on Live TV, and he slipped in a racist comment quite casually, which didn't sit well with the Indian audience. He spoke about the entire Sikh community and disrespected them on all levels. The video went viral on social media, and many cricket fans, including Harbhajan Singh, have come up and slammed the former batter for such remarks.
It was Pakistan's second loss in the tournament, and one more loss will eliminate them from the Super 8 race. They lost their first match against the USA, which went on to the Super Over. The Men in Green couldn't chase 19 runs in that over and, hence, lost the match. The upcoming matches are crucial for them, and they'll count on the batters not to disappoint this time.
Harbhajan Singh lashes out at Kamran Akmal for his racist remarks
After hearing the racist comments of Kamran Akmal, Harbhajan Singh lashed out at the former Pakistan keeper-batter via social media. He posted saying Akmal should know the history of the Sikh community before commenting on them. Akmal didn't even realize once before passing such offending comments on one's community, and hence, the backlash he's getting makes complete sense.
"You should know the history of Sikhs before u open ur filthy mouth. We Sikhs saved ur mothers and sisters when they were abducted by invaders, the time invariably was 12 o’clock . Shame on you and have some Gratitude," said Harbhajan Singh on his social media account.
