The Pakistan Super League has been a wonderful league to watch. There have been a combination of high-scoring matches, low-scoring matches, some thrillers and a lot of other antics on and off the field that have made the League memorable so far. The League has been able to churn out a lot of new and upcoming cricketers for Pakistan.
In the match against Islamabad United and Quetta Gladiators, a very funny moment happened in the course of the game that left the fans on social media in splits. After a wicket had fallen in the Gladiator’s innings, Hasan Ali rushed to hug Azam Khan and caught him in a tight embrace. Then he did a sort of cartwheel and fell over Azam. Hasan Ali has been famous for his celebrations.
