Viral Video Falsely Links MP Thakur, Shah, Afridi to Asia Cup

Viral Video Falsely Links MP Thakur, Shah, Afridi to Asia Cup

A video of Indian politician Anurag Thakur, ICC Chairman Jay Shah, and cricketer Shahid Afridi was shared online with the false claim that they were watching an India-Pakistan cricket match during the Asia Cup.

The social media post stated the three figures were watching the match at the stadium as if they were 'high school friends.'

This claim is incorrect.

The clip has been misrepresented, as it is not from the Asia Cup.
