'He Didn't Know Most Of The Players': Babar Azam & Pakistan Team Trolled By Iceland Cricket After King Charles' Viral Interaction

Iceland Cricket playfully mocked the Pakistan cricket team following a light-hearted interaction between team captain Babar Azam and King Charles. The mutual exchange that had gone viral on social media featured Babar presenting the monarch with a cricket bat, signed by his teammates, during a meeting with the British monarch ahead of a crucial Test against England.

King Charles's curiosity led him to question Babar, "Is it Pakistani willow?" This amusing encounter quickly garnered attention from cricket enthusiasts online.

The Pakistan squad was swiftly hit with a barrage of criticism from Iceland Cricket, a cricket-loving entity known for its humorous posts. Iceland Cricket's social media account posted a video of the incident on X, seemingly ridiculing the fact that Babar Azam was evidently unfamiliar with most of his fellow players. The account quipped, "You can bet he didn t know who most of the players were, because nobody else does," adding a layer of humor to an already noteworthy moment.

The interaction between Babar and King Charles took place at a challenging juncture for Pakistan in their Test series against England. England held a significant lead of 2-0 in the three-match series, leaving Pakistan eager to salvage some pride in the final Test at Edgbaston. The squad had undergone several changes, including the departure of seven players and the replacement of Sarfaraz Ahmed as head coach with Mike Hesson.

Despite these challenges, Babar's encounter with King Charles and the presentation of the signed bat provided a much-needed light-hearted moment. However, Iceland Cricket's post ensured that the incident quickly became the subject of widespread online ribbing.
