Star Pakistani all-rounder Shadab Khan expressed solidarity with his teammate Hasan Ali in response to social media trolls targeting his English language skills. Shadab Khan responded emphatically to a social media user, asserting his pride in embracing his cultural roots.

Hasan Ali replied to Shadab Khan’s post on his social media account on Friday, August 18. The right-arm pacer composed the caption in Urdu, which subsequently led to criticism regarding his English proficiency. He has been subjected to trolling on a microblogging platform.

Hasan Ali replied to Shadab Khan’s post and wrote in the caption, “Mai sadqy jaon wari jaon apny yaar pa Maa Sha Allah nazar na lag jaye (May you go on the road, go and get your love. God will protect you, don’t get lost).”

I Am Not Ashamed Of My Culture – Shadab Khan

Responding to the troll’s retweet, Shadab Khan took to his social media handle to silence the user with a direct but clever reply.

“Messi english na bolay theek. Foreign players english mai aesi baat ker de theek. Laikin hmy chahe ke ham natural na rahe. Hum fake personality bna le. Bhai mujhe to apne culture ya mazak mai koi sharam nahi. Allah sab ko khush rakhay aur dosre ki khushi mai bhi khush rakhay.

(Messi doesn’t speak english, it’s fine. Foreign players speak whatever they want in English, it is fine. but if we act natural, we have a fake personality. I am not ashamed of my culture. Allah will keep everyone happy)”, he wrote.
