Former Pakistani cricketer and skipper Shahid Khan Afridi confirmed that his daughter waved the Indian flag during an Asia Cup 2022 match between Pakistan and India.

Afridi's daughter was spotted waving the India flag on September 4 during a high-octane match between the arch-rivals in the tournament's Super Four match. Pakistan defeated India in the clash.

The former Pakistani skipper said there weren't enough flags of Pakistan available, so his daughter took an India flag and started waving it.

He said his wife told him that Pakistani spectators constituted only 10% of the crowd at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. 

He said he received a video of his younger daughter but was unsure whether to share it online or not.
