Taunt on Shan Masood, created controversy
Last year in December, under the leadership of Shan Masood, who became the captain of Pakistan’s Test team, Pakistan had to face defeat in 6 consecutive matches. After losing the first match of the series against England, the Pakistani team won the next two matches in Multan and then Rawalpindi and won the series. After winning the series, Shan Masood was present in the broadcaster’s show for discussion and it was here that Rameez Raja tried to make fun of him. Instead of talking about the team’s victory, Rameez tauntingly asked Shan Masood how he achieved the feat of losing 6 consecutive Test matches.
