Several videos of Afghanistan fans attacking Pakistanis and throwing chairs around the stadium have gone viral on social media since the epic match ended.

This is not the first time Afghan cricket fans have attacked opposing fans inside a stadium. A similar incident occurred in 2019 when Pakistan and Afghanistan faced off in the ICC One-Day International World Cup in Leeds.

Pakistan had defeated Afghanistan in a nail-biting incident thanks to the heroics of Imad Wasim and Wahab Riaz. Afghanistan fans destroyed the stands and threw chairs at Pakistani fans, escalating the situation.

Earlier in the game, Pakistan’s explosive middle-order batter, Asif Ali, and Afghanistan’s pacer, Fareed Ahmed, were involved in an ugly exchange on the field. Fareed cursed Asif after he took his crucial wicket, and Asif responded by raising his bat. Before Asif, the umpires intervened and calmed them down.
