Fan saves Shahid Afridi, Ahmed Shehzad from embarrassment

It was embarrass moment for Pakistan’s Shahid Afridi and Ahmed Shehzad, when they both walked into a fast food outlet at airport after a long flight empty pocketed. Both Pakistani players didn’t have local currency to pay for their burgers which they have ordered.

They were luck to find Waqas, a Pakistani living in New Zealand, who saved them and paid their bills. "It is a good feeling to have my local team, Pakistan's team, over here," Waqas said. "I am going to support them all."

However, during the course of action, a video was viral in the social media space, showing Afridi explaining something to the waiter before the fan stepped in.

The Pakistani T20 skipper later said he was disappointed that the entire episode was recorded by someone in the restaurant, but took to social media to clarify the issue.Â
