Pakistanis were jubilant over their men’s cricket team’s splendid performance against India, however, very little was said about the Pakistani women’s cricket team’s whitewash win against South Africa.
Female celebrities have risen to the challenge, advocating for more recognition to be given to the team.
Cricket player Shadab Khan shared a picture of the team, calling for them to be treated with equal respect as the men’s cricket team.
The women’s team deserves just as much support as the men’s team. #PakistanZindabad pic.twitter.com/8YPWaVOdpL
