The worlds of cricket and football collided as German footballer Kevin Prince-Boateng replicated Shaheen Shah Afridi’s celebration style on the football field.
As the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 8 approaches the playoffs phase, anticipation of winning the trophy continues to increase, generating a storm of hype. The impact of the PSL is not limited to Pakistan alone but has also extended to the football field in Germany.
In a recent tweet by Hertha Berlin, a German football club, a picture of Kevin Prince-Boateng celebrating his goal in a style similar to Afridi’s was shared. The club also posted a picture of Shaheen Shah Afridi, drawing a comparison between both celebratory moments while tagging Lahore Qalandars’ Twitter account.
“Prince getting into the PSLt20 spirit – who did it better, @lahoreqalandars?” tweeted Hertha Berlin.
This development of Pakistan cricket transcending international boundaries is fantastic for the PSL’s global image. Cricket Germany also proposed a match between Hertha XI and Germany XI, further highlighting the impact of cricket and the PSL on the global sporting scene.
