In the T20 World Cup 2024 being held in West Indies and USA, an exciting match between India and Pakistan (IND vs PAK) was played on 9 June at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. Let us tell you that in this match, the Indian team had to defend 18 runs against Pakistan in the last over to win.

So Arshdeep Singh, who came to bowl for India, conceded only 11 runs in his over and made Team India win the match by 6 runs. However, during this match, former cricketer Kamran Akmal was seen making fun of Arshdeep Singh on a Pakistani media channel, and he made a comment about 12 o’clock while laughing at his Sikh religion, which was severely criticized in the cricket world as well as all over the world.

On the other hand, now a big statement has come from former Indian player and famous Harbhajan Singh, known as the Turbanator, on this statement of Kamran Akmal. Harbhajan says that only a worthless person can do such a thing.

Harbhajan Singh targeted Kamran Akmal

Let us tell you that in a recent interview to ANI, Harbhajan Singh said – Very absurd statement and very childish act and only a worthless person can do such an act. What can I say about this, because the more we talk about them (Pakistani players), the more we will degrade ourselves. These are not sensible people about whom we can talk. Kamran Akmal, as a cricketer and as a common citizen, needs to know that he does not need to say anything abusive about anyone’s religion.

When Indian player Arshdeep Singh had to bowl the last over, ex-Pakistani player Kamran Akmal said on a news channel – “Anything can happen… it is 12 o’clock… 12 o’clock over should not be given to any Sikh”

This is insulting and a racist mockery of the Sikh community. Shameful. pic.twitter.com/BuefsZxlOf

On the other hand, after this comment on Sikhism and the issue gaining momentum, Kamran Akmal has apologized for his statement. But his statement has definitely hurt the faith of Sikh followers.
