‘Yeh Izzat Hai Meri?’: Pakistan Star Azam Khan Breaks Down After Brutal T20I Outing Against England
Keeper-batter opens up on painful bouncers, Oval crowd abuse, and emotional struggle in viral podcast
LONDON, England – Pakistan’s Azam Khan recently shared a heart-wrenching recount of his traumatic experience during the fourth T20I against England at The Oval. A viral podcast shows the 23-year-old breaking down mid-story, revealing the emotional and physical toll of facing England pacer Mark Wood’s lightning-fast bouncers.
Khan, who walked in at 84/4, initially faced Wood’s first delivery with composure, but the follow-up bouncer left him shaken. “Meri zindagi na ekdum ruk gayi, bhai ye mere saath kya hua hain!!!” he recalled, describing the moment the ball struck near his gloves. The batter admitted that walking back to the pavilion amid abuse from the Oval crowd was one of the toughest moments of his life.
The young cricketer also reflected on the emotional aftermath, including dropped catches and the support from teammate Shadab Khan. “It was one of those off days, but I will bounce back stronger,” he told listeners.
Despite facing only five balls without scoring, Azam’s candidness has resonated with fans worldwide, showing the human side of cricket beyond runs and wickets. Pakistan posted 157 in 20 overs, but England chased it comfortably in 15.3 overs, winning the series 2-0 with two matches abandoned due to rain.
This raw confession has sparked widespread support online, with fans praising Azam Khan’s honesty and resilience in confronting one of the most challenging matches of his career.
