Pakistani Men's Cricketer Haris Rauf started the trend of pulling off some gestures mocking the Indian fans, which has been carried forward by the Pakistani Women cricketers after they defeated South Africa Women in an ODI bilateral series just before the start of the ICC Women's World Cup.
The India vs Pakistan controversies, social media shaming, and more have led to the mounting of immense pressure on the players from both sides. On a few occasions, these players have shown some offensive outbursts.
One of the outbursts that caught the attention of the Indian fans has been Pakistan player Haris Rauf's on-field attempt to make a mockery of the Indo-Pak War-like situation.
Watch: Pakistan Women's skipper sparks debate through controversial gestures imitating Haris Rauf
During the well-known India vs Pakistan match in the Asia Cup, pacer Haris Rauf gestured a plane crash with his hand. This was a mockery of the Indian nation, supporting Pakistan's claim of having brought down 6 Indian fighter jets.
A recent video of Pakistan Women's team skipper Fatima Sana has gone viral on the internet, as it also shows the skipper making a similar hand gesture, which draws similarity to Haris Rauf's gestures, implying the jet crashes.
She can be spotted near the Pakistan contingent, where she was found conversing with the coach, Mohammed Wasim. Fatima, while making the gestures, clearly had a huge smile on her face.

Nashra Sandhu celebrates milestone with controversial 6-0 hand gesture
Indian women's international star Nashra Sandhu did a similar stunt, imitating the Pakistani pacer Haris Rauf. Nashra Sandhu represented the Pakistan women's squad in a one-day international against South Africa on Monday at the Gaddafi Stadium.
She took six wickets in the game, becoming Pakistan's fastest woman to reach 100 wickets in ODI Cricket. Her on-field performance has been praised by many, and even the supporters would agree on the fact that the six-finger sign she made could be avoided.
Even on social media, he wrote, "Alhamdullillah, truly humbled to reach the milestone of 100 ODI wickets with a player of the match award. I am grateful to my family, teammates, and support staff for their constant support. Looking ahead with gratitude and determination," she wrote on X.

Pakistan will have to win both games to see it through to the Asia Cup Final
Pakistan will have to win both games in the Asia Cup 2025 Super-4 games against Sri Lanka and the Bangladesh side to make their way through to the finals of the competition. Considering the dominance of the Pakistan side against Sri Lanka in the ongoing match, it can be asserted that they have made a positive start to their campaign.
Their next target would be to win over Bangladesh in the next fixture so that they can make it through to feature alongside the other opponents. But for Sri Lanka, a loss in the ongoing game against Pakistan might surely mean an end to their campaign.
