Former legendary India batting all-rounder, Yuvraj Singh and former Pakistan legend Shahid Afridi were seen in a short chit-chat after the conclusion of the high-octane last-ball thriller between India and Pakistan in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. In this video, Yuvi and Afridi are sharing thoughts on Pakistan’s narrow 6-run defeat against India while chasing the low target of 120.

“Lala tu, Kyu udaas hai (Lala, why are you sad),” said Yuvraj to Afridi as the video starts. “Udaas hona banta hai ki nhi banta mera, ye match haarne waala tha (am I supposed to be sad or not in this situation, was it a game to lose),” replied Afridi with the sorrow of Pakistan’s defeat in his words and expressions.

“Nahin, haarne waala toh nahin tha but game mein toh ye sab hota rehta hai,” said Yuvraj Singh to ‘disappointed’ former Pakistan skipper.

“Kal jab 40 run reh gaye thay hamare toh Yuvi ne mujhe kaha tha ki ‘lala mubarabkbaad, main jaa rha hun match nhi dekh rha’ toh maine isse kaha ki ‘Yuvi itni jaldi mubarakbaad mat de, abhi 40 run bache hain’ 40 run bahut hain is pitch pe (When we needed 40 runs, Yuvi congratulated me and was leaving, I told him that ‘Yuvi, 40 runs are much on this surface, don’t congratulate me so early” said Afridi while addressing the camera.

Yuvi ended with a message saying, “wo actually maine tereko bola tha ki Pakistan match jeet jayegi but mujhe Khushi hai ki India jeeti, baaki haar jeet chalti rehti hai game mein, India-Pakistan ka pyaar mohbbat bana rahe (Actually, I told you that Pakistan might win but I was really happy when India won, but the win and a loss are the parts of the game, the love between India and Pakistan should always be there.”
