Shahid Afridi Brimingham Legend Championship

(Web Desk) — A video circulating on social media shows former national cricket team captain and all-rounder Shahid Afridi in Birmingham, where he is currently attending the World Championship of Legends event.

Amidst a gathering outside a tea restaurant, some supporters of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) are seen chanting slogans against him.

The incident occurred as Afridi was leaving the restaurant, where fans had gathered to meet him and take pictures. In the video, a small group of PTI supporters can be heard chanting “shame shame” towards Afridi. Despite the provocative chants, Afridi maintained his composure and even shook hands with those who were critical of him.

Social media reactions to the video have been mixed, with some users praising Afridi for his graciousness and handling of the situation, while others criticized the chanting as inappropriate. The context includes Afridi’s previous public criticisms of PTI founder Imran Khan’s political strategies, which have occasionally resulted in tensions with PTI supporters.
