Playing cricket brings joy to everyone, wherever they are on the continent. All cricket fans wish to play with their favorite international players whenever they get a chance, but only a few get to fulfill their wish.
Birmingham-based doctor Samara Afzal’s dream came true when she got the incredible opportunity to play cricket in her own backyard with none other than the famous former Pakistani cricketer Younis Khan.
In an adorable video, Afzal, who has experience playing for English county cricket team Warwickshire, can be seen batting gracefully in his garden dressed in a salwar kameez.
