Irfan Pathan sheds light on Peshawar attack by Pakistani crowd

Irfan Pathan sheds light on Peshawar attack by Pakistani crowd
Share on FacebookShare on X

Irfan Pathan Peshawar incident: It’s been almost a week since India’s resounding victory over Pakistan, securing their unique World Cup sweep of 8-0 against their arch-rivals. However, in the aftermath of this crushing defeat, Pakistanis have resorted to bizarre excuses, some even suggesting ‘black magic’ played a role in Hardik Pandya’s tactics. Accusations of rudeness and insensitivity were hurled at the Indian team, despite BCCI’s efforts to maintain sportsmanship.

Yet, in an unexpected twist, former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan decided to address these accusations by recounting a harrowing incident that took place in Peshawar, Pakistan, where he narrowly escaped a potentially severe eye injury from a vindictive crowd. This revelation came during the India-Bangladesh Asia World Cup match in Pune, prompted by a question from his co-commentator about the impact of off-field controversies on team performance and morale.

When asked about his opinion, Irfan Pathan recalled the Peshawar match in which he was performing well, and Team India was on the rise. However, during the game, a Pakistani fan threw an iron nail that struck him under his eye. “Peshawar me ham khelne gaye the, tab ek Pakistani fan ne meri aankh ke niche keel mardi thi. Lekin hamne iss baat ka batangad ni banaya. Dus minute game ruki, sab aye, aur uske baad hum sabne decide kiya ki achcha tour chal raha hai, chalne dete hai” (We were playing a game in Peshawar when a fan threw a nail at me, which struck me under my eye. I could have gotten seriously injured. The match was halted for 10 minutes, but we did not pay any heed to it as we were playing good cricket).

Irfan Pathan said, "we were playing a game in Peshawar, a fan suddenly threw an iron nail at me which struck under my eye. We never made an issue out of that and always appreciated their hospitality. Pakistan should stop making issues on crowd behaviour in India". (Star Sports). pic.twitter.com/4NYJELMHyn

Irfan Pathan, known for his remarkable achievements against Pakistan, such as his match-winning performance at the T20 World Cup final and a rare hattrick in the final test in 2006, where he dismissed the first three batsmen on the first three balls of the innings, chose to candidly express his perspective on the incident. Notably, both Irfan and his brother, Yusuf Pathan, have been openly religious, but in this instance, he didn’t mince words and showed the mirror to Pakistan for what they actually are: uncivilized barbarians.

The Irfan Pathan Peshawar incident serves as a stark reminder of the challenges that Indian cricketers have faced during matches in Pakistan. It underscores the significance of maintaining sportsmanship and focusing on the game, despite the hostilities between the two nations. While it’s essential to promote a spirit of healthy competition in sports, incidents like the one Irfan Pathan experienced remind us of the potential dangers and tensions that can arise on and off the field.

The match Irfan Pathan was referring to was an ODI vs Pakistan in Peshawar,2006.

Irfan had scored 65 including 5 fours to Umar Gul in 1 over

Irfan Pathan’s candid recounting of this incident provides a unique perspective on the recent controversy surrounding India’s match against Pakistan. It highlights the complexities that arise when political tensions spill over into the world of sports, affecting not only players but also the overall atmosphere surrounding the game.

The recent India-Pakistan match generated a significant amount of attention and excitement among cricket enthusiasts on both sides. However, the aftermath has seen a surge in unfounded allegations and bizarre claims, reflecting the intense emotions that surround matches between these two cricketing giants.

Decision of Irfan Pathan to speak candidly about the Peshawar incident is a reminder of the real-world consequences that can result from such controversies. It encourages introspection and highlights the need to ensure the safety and well-being of players and spectators in the highly charged atmosphere of India-Pakistan matches.

This incident, despite being a difficult memory for Irfan Pathan, underscores the resilience and sportsmanship of athletes who continue to perform under challenging circumstances. It also reinforces the significance of maintaining the dignity of the game and not allowing political tensions to overshadow the true spirit of sports.
