As the T20 World Cup 2024 continues to captivate audiences worldwide, cricket fever has gripped fans and celebrities alike, Pakistani actress Kubra Khan has shared her thoughts on the sport and revealed her favorite cricketer.
Despite Pakistan’s recent unexpected loss to the relatively inexperienced USA team, which sparked outrage among Pakistani fans and notable figures, the Noor Jahan actress managed to draw attention with her candid remarks during a World Cup transmission on a private TV channel.
When asked about her interest in cricket, Kubra Khan clarified, “It’s not that I’m not interested. I enjoy cricket when Pakistan plays, but I haven’t followed the ongoing T20 World Cup closely.”
The conversation took an interesting turn when she was asked to name her favorite cricketer. Without hesitation, she praised young fast bowler Naseem Shah, stating, “I think Naseem Shah is a great addition to the team.”
The Sang-e-Mar Mar actress expressed that although she may not be an avid cricket follower, she enjoys watching the game because of Naseem Shah’s performance. Her admiration for the young cricketer highlights the impact of individual players on fans, even those who may not typically follow the sport.
On the professional front, she is currently starring in the lead role of Noor Banu in the new television serial ‘Noor Jahan.’ The drama features an ensemble cast including Saba Hamid, Ali Rehman Khan, Noor Hasan, Zoya Nasir, Hajra Yameen, Ali Raza, Yusuf Bashir Qureshi, Mahmood Aslam, and Aleena Abbas.
