Srinagar: In a hilarious way, the New Zealand DJ trolled Pakistan batter Azam Khan by playing BIG Shows’s WWE music when the Khan walked out to bat in the Third T20I vs New Zealand at University Oval on Tuesday.
Replicating the last year act when New Zealand batter Glenn Phillips in Pakistan came out to bat playing John Cena music, the Dunedin Disc Jockey (DJ) this time continued the tradition of marking the arrival of batters with the music theme of WWE wrestlers.
The DJ this time took cheeky dig at cricketer Azam Khan by welcoming the batter with the theme music of WWE wrestler – The Big Show.
The decision to give Azam’s entrance on the field a WWE twist backfired as Pakistani fans called out the hosts on social media. The viral video has sparked a debate on social media. Azam is the son of former Pakistani wicketkeeper-batter Moin Khan.
Meanwhile Azam’s stay at the crease was cut short by Matt Henry, who got the better of the Pakistani gloveman in the 12th over. Khan only managed to score 10 off 7 balls in the recently concluded encounter between Pakistan and New Zealand.
