Srinagar: A video of Pakistan star batter Babar Azam has gone viral in which he is getting angry and threaten to throw bottle at spectators who were chanting “ZimBabar” during ongoing Pakistan Super League.
As seen in video, Babar looked angry at fans teasing him with ‘ZimBabar’ chants. However, the clip has caused a furore on social media, with a section of the crowd questioning whether the video is at all real.
On Saturday, a video of Babar made rounds on every social media platform where the star Pakistan batter was sitting on the sidelines with the technical staff of Peshawar Zalmi when a section of the spectators behind him began chanting ‘ZimBabar’. Babar was left visibly agitated at the reaction of the fans, he was seen mouthing a few words angrily before threatening to throw the water bottle at them. The 29-year-old, however, stopped himself and sat on his chair to focus back on the match.
While most were left shocked at Babar’s reaction in the video, many on social media claimed that the video was fake, saying that the ‘ZimBabar’ chants were taken from a separate clip and edited into the new video in a bid to garner attention.
