Pakistani pacer Hasan Ali got into a fight at a local cricket match after spectators jeered him with inappropriate remarks. The video of the fight has gone viral. According to a geo.tv report, the international pacesetter was seen in a match on Sunday in Arif Wala, a town in the Pakpattan district of Punjab. The crowd poked fun at the pacemaker for dropping a crucial catch in Pakistan’s T20 World Cup 2021 semi-final against Australia.
Hearing the comments, Hasan could not keep calm as he could be seen running towards the crowd. Then other players intervened to take Hasan away.

He played for Islamabad United and Peshawar Zalmi in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) and St Kitts & Nevis Patriots in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL), among others. He was also the leading wicket taker for Pakistan at the 2017 Champions Trophy for Pakistan with 13 scalps. He was named Player of the Tournament.
