"Payment nahi milegi ab": Babar Azam's ad shoot goes wrong; trolled heavily During a promotional shoot for a commercial, Pakistan cricket captain Babar Azam faced criticism after a mishap during a simulated catch. The ad required him to dive to his right to retrieve a ball, with safety measures including two foam mattresses placed beneath him. As the ball was thrown, Azam executed the dive, landed on the mattresses, but failed to secure a straightforward catch. The incident sparked widespread mockery on social media, with users expressing disappointment and humor over the perceived error. One user remarked, “Isse gadde rakh kar bhi catch nahi liya ja raha socho agar bina gadde k pakadta to kya hota. Shayad ye 1 saal tak khel hi nahi paata,” suggesting that Azam’s failure to catch the ball despite the safety net highlighted his lack of skill. Another user quipped, “Payment nahi milega aab,” a sarcastic reference to the idea that Azam might no longer earn his salary due to the blunder. The comments reflect a mix of public frustration and lighthearted teasing, typical of online reactions to such incidents. The ad shoot incident also drew attention to broader discussions about Azam’s performance and leadership. While some critics questioned his reliability under pressure, others defended his efforts, emphasizing that the shoot was a staged scenario rather than a real match. The controversy underscored the intense scrutiny faced by high-profile athletes, even in non-competitive settings. Meanwhile, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 11 is set to be played entirely behind closed doors, a decision that has raised concerns about the impact on the tournament’s atmosphere. Without fans in the stands, the electric energy that typically defines PSL matches is expected to be significantly diminished.#social_media #babar_azam #pakistan_super_league #psl_11 #pakistan_cricket_captain
