Another netizen commented, ''Aaj suraj kaha se nikla. Andar se dukh hoga apko to.'' In reply, Javed wrote, ''Beta jab tumhare baap dada angrez ke jootay chaat rahe thay tab mere aazadi ke liye jai aur kala paani mein thay .

Ind vs Pak CT2025 clash
The fifth game in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 was played between arch-rivals India and Pakistan. Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and elected to bat first against the Men in Blue. Pakistan were bowled out for just 241 runs, which was easily chased by Rohit Sharma-led team in the 43rd over. This was Pakistan's second loss in the tournament and now the chances of them progressing to the semis are quite low. On the other hand, the Men in Blue are almost through to the next round as they won both of their games convincingly.
