Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has backed cricketer Haris Rauf over the ‘6-0’ gesture he made during the Asia Cup cricket match with India on Sunday.
Fast bowler Rauf and Indian opening batsmen Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill had a spat during the match when the Pak player made the gesture that world believe refers to Islamabad’s claims of having shot down six Indian fighter jets, during Operation Banyanam Marsoos.
Resharing an X post Khawaja Asif said, “Haris Rauf is treating them right. Keep it up. Cricket matches keep happening… but 6-0 will not be forgotten by India until the Judgement Day, and the world will remember it too.”
Khawaja Asif also shared a second video that showed Rauf mimicking planes being shot down. “Haris Rauf bringing Bharat back to its senses!” he said, adding the Pak flag and a grinning emoji.
