Following their defeat to India in the Asia Cup 2025 final on September 28, Pakistan cricket captain Salman Ali Agha stirred controversy with a politically charged statement. Agha announced that the team would donate their entire match fees to civilians and children allegedly killed in recent Indian attacks. The statement has drawn sharp criticism from analysts and fans alike, with many questioning whether the Pakistan team is subtly endorsing extremist narratives. At a time when the global focus is on fighting terrorism, such remarks are being seen as inappropriate and provocative. The controversy has also spilled over to social media, where users are debating whether cricket should be used as a platform for political messaging.
