Fan's Prank Leads to PCB Reply

The fan thought it was a funny prank and didn't expect anything to happen.
But the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) sent him a serious email asking for official documents.
The fan was surprised and a bit scared because he didn't think his joke would go this far.
The PCB treated his application like a real one, which shows that anyone can try to buy a team in their cricket league.
