Indian team finally cleared off their account with Pakistan for the last defeat during the T20 World Cup 2021. Both teams faced each other in their first match of the campaign during the Asia Cup 2022. Rohit Sharma & co. won the match by five wickets by chasing the target of 148 runs in the last over of the match.
Indian cricket fans in any corner of the world celebrated this victory against the arch-rivals Pakistan in unique styles. But there is something that made it to the headlines and didn’t go down well with Pakistani cricket fans.
Recently, a video is surfacing on social media in which an Afghan fan can be seen celebrating the victory of India with all his heart. He went on to kiss star Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya on the TV screen.
Here's the video:
Congratulations to all our brothers. Indians And Afghans🇦🇫🇮🇳. We the people Afghanistan celebrating this victory with or friend country indian people. #India #ViratKohli𓃵 #pandya #INDvsPAK pic.twitter.com/FFI5VvKE0d

This video was posted on Twitter and it went viral within minutes of being uploaded. It has drawn a lot of reactions and comments within no time.
“Congratulations to all our brothers. Indians And Afghans. We the people (of) Afghanistan celebrating this victory with (our) friend country Indian people,” read the caption of the tweet that includes this video of an Afghan fan,
This video has got a lot of love and respect from the Indian supporters to Afghans and they also thanked them to support and displaying their love for the Indian cricketer. Even, many fans wished that the final should be played between India and Afghanistan.
Although, this video was something that went very unpleasant to the Pakistani fans, who were already in a state of mourning after the defeat against the arch-rivals. Some of the Pakistani fans furiously lashed out at the Afghans for supporting the Indians.
Here's how Pakistani fans reacted:

Speaking of the tournament, Afghanistan also won their first match just like India. They defeated the Sri Lankan side by a massive margin of eight wickets. Now, Mohammad Nabi & co will face Bangladesh in their next match of the tournament in Sharjah.
Whereas on the other hand, India will lock horns with Hongkong the next day in Dubai.
