Pak Fighter, Who Held India Flag, Slams His Government's Lack Of Support

Any sporting contest between India and Pakistan is one which widely followed with fervour and passion. The India vs Pakistan cricket contest is the pinnacle of it. Any match between the two teams divides opinions. Fans and experts from both the countries are more excited about this match than any other game. The same scenes were seen when India's Rana Singh and Pakistan's Shahzaib Rindh came up against each other in the Karate Combat last week. The intense battle saw the Pakistani athlete emerge triumphant 2-1. The contest went into the third round after Pakistan's Rizwan Ali and India's Himanshu Kaushik won the first and second match respectively.

However, after than the game, Shahzaib's gesture became a big talking point on social media. The Pakistani athlete was seen holding the flags of both his country and India's. Even the match presenter couldn't resist asking him the reason behind this act.

Explaining the gesture, Shahzaib said: "This fight was for peace. We are not enemies, we are together. Together we can do anything. This fight is for Pakistan and India's friendship and being closer."

"And, I want to thank Salman Khan for coming here. He's my superstar. I've been watching your movies since childhood. It's been a pleasure to fight in front of you. Thank you," he further said.

After returning to Pakistan, Shahzaib, was quoted as saying by dawn.com, that it was the government's “bad luck” that it did not support its heroes.

“If our heroes are supported accordingly, they can become role models for our youth,” he said. “They will also be motivated and join sports,” he said.

He added that his next aim is to win the world title. "It is happening soon in Dubai and I will go there and bring Pakistan the world title,” Rind said.
