Cricket is quite a 💛popular sport in Asia. India and Pa🔜kistan are the Asian powerhouses, and the craze for the game is second to none in these countries.
A rec🔯ent tweet by the ICC pretty much brou꧃ght out how popular the sport is. It referred to a couple, who watched the second T20I between Australia and Pakistan just after getting married in the USA.
Hasan Tasleem sent a picture to the apex cricketing body. One can see that the couple is watching the game on a TV just behind them even as they e♔ngaged in a welcoming ceremony.
“Here’s a message we got from a fan in the US #CoupleGoals You know it’s love when,” ICC captioned the picture.
“As a die-hard cricket fan, I want to submit a photo of my wedding this past weekend. As per tradition, after the completion of wedding, the bride is bought home for a little traditional ceremony amongst the close family.
As we came home (around midnight in Detroit, Michigan, USA) the Pakistan vs Australia T20 game was getting underway. Over the years residing in North America I’ve stayed up at all sorts of odd hours in night to catch team Pakistan play. Even though it was my wedding night, I wasn’t going to miss this game,” the fan wrote in his letter to the ICC.
