Mohammad Rizwan’s unnecessary ‘Indian’ comment on the Haris Rauf incident is sparking outrage on the internet

Mohammad Rizwan and Haris Rauf

Pakistani keeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan has sparked a huge controversy as he showed support for Haris Rauf in the recent controversy. Rauf was recently seen in a video having an altercation

The incident took place outside the Pakistan squad hotel following their group stage elimination from the T20 World Cup in the United States and West Indies. It was unclear what caused the event, although it appeared to be the result of some disrespectful comments from one of the group’s followers.

Haris was seen sprinting over the hedge and charging towards someone in a blue T-shirt, despite his wife’s urgent attempts to stop him. The other members of the gang tried to prevent the Pakistani pacer from getting involved in a physical brawl.

After the group managed to separate the duo and send Haris over the hedge, the Pakistani pacer shouted: “Tera India nahi hai yeh (This is not your India),” repeatedly in an attempt to emphasize that the fan was from India. But the man in question was heard replying: “Pakistan is hu. (I’m from Pakistan).”

Meanwhile, many Pakistani cricketers came out in support of Haris Rauf, and Mohammad Rizwan was one of them. But unlike the others, his tweet was not well received, especially by fans from India.

It is irrelevant whether the person who disrespected Haris Rauf was from Pakistan or India. What really matters is that this individual had no values ​​and manners. No one has the right to disrespect a human being, especially in front of his family members. Such appalling behavior must end. Values ​​such as tolerance, respect and compassion are becoming increasingly rares,” Rizwan wrote on X.

Fans were unhappy that despite the video clearly showing and the person saying he was a Pakistani, Rizwan chose to write Indian in his post in support of Rauf.

Here are some responses:
