Pakistan skipper Babar Azam's respectful act towards Afghanistan former captain Muhammad Nabi has left the cricket fans in awe.

In the ongoing match between Pakistan and Afghanistan, Pakistan batted first and scored 282 runs.

Babar Azam was the best scorer with 74 runs. He played 92 balls, hitting four fours and one six. People praised his performance because he hadn't been playing very well lately.

But what people liked even more was Babar's kind and respectful act towards veteran Afghan cricketer Mohammad Nabi.

There's a video on the internet where Babar was going to tie his shoelaces, and when Nabi tried to help, Babar politely said no as a sign of respect for the 38-year-old.

King is King👑🔥

Fans and viewers appreciated how sportsmanlike Babar was. Before this match, he hadn't been doing great in the tournament, with only one good score in a match against India.
