'Lightan Chalao!' Babar Azam Jokingly Reacts In Punjabi To Dark Conditions Ahead Of ENG Vs PAK 3rd Test; VIDEO

A video has surfaced on social media, capturing the humorous side of Pakistan Men's Cricket Team captain and star batter Babar Azam as he prepares for the third and final Test match against England at Edgbaston in Birmingham. The match is set to begin on Wednesday, September 9. In the video, Babar Azam is seen leaving the team's enclosure with his cricket kit to join a practice session.

Upon stepping outside, he immediately notices the dim lighting conditions on the field, likely caused by the overcast weather. Babar Azam responds in Punjabi with a lighthearted remark: "Oye, hanera pai reha ae, lightan chalao!" (Hey, it's getting dark, turn on the lights!). This comical comment quickly gained traction on social media platforms, as it happened just before a significant Test match for the Pakistani team.

Fans are currently monitoring the weather forecast, as the latest report from the Met Office indicates a low probability of rain during the first day of the match. The forecast predicts sunny intervals and cloudy spells for Wednesday at Edgbaston.
