Mohammad Rizwan, the wicket-keeper batsman from Pakistan, has once again been seen offering Namaz during a match, this time during the drinks break of the ICC Cricket World Cup match between Pakistan and Netherlands in Hyderabad. This is not the first time that Rizwan has been seen offering prayer on the field, as he was also seen doing so earlier during a T20 game against India.
The Pakistani cricketer is facing criticism from Indian fans, as they accuse him of doing this mostly when he notices that Indians are watching him. Earlier this year, he was spotted offering Namaz on the streets in the USA, and faced criticism from cricket fans for praying in public when he could have done so in the privacy of his hotel room.
The video of Mohammad Rizwan offering Namaz during the drinks break has gone viral on social media. His team went on to register a historic win against Netherlands, with the 81-run victory being the first time that Pakistan has won a 50-overs World Cup match on Indian soil.
Saud Shakeel was declared Man of the Match for his crucial knock of 68 runs which helped Pakistan set a target that was enough to secure victory. Pakistan is now scheduled to face Sri Lanka at the same venue on October 10th, and will go up against India at Narendra Modi Stadium on October 14th.
Mohammad Rizwan has often mixed cricket and religion, as he deliberately offers prayers when he notices Indians watching him. This has raised questions about if he has come to play cricket or to propagate his religion. Regardless of the criticism, it is clear that he is a devoted individual who remains steadfast in his beliefs.
