Sarfaraz Ahmed rewarded with a BMW at a Pakistani game show

Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed’s happiness has been piled upon as he was rewarded with two gifts in the Geo Khelo a Pakistani game show. He got the much-deserved presents for leading an inexperienced side to the Champions Trophy crown on June 18th. Sarfraz was present in the 25th episode of the game show along with Wasim Akram and Shoaib Akhtar who are the hosts of the programme.

The crowd welcomed the skipper with a huge roar including chants of ‘Sarfraz Zindabad’. Ahmed was awestruck with the massive response from the fans. He was handed over a luxury SUV BMW X1 as a joint thank you from JS Bank and Dewan Motors as well as a 250 sq yard plot of land by Bahria Town.

Sarfraz and his men were brilliant throughout the tournament and put up an outstanding show in the final as they thrashed India to lay their hands upon the trophy for the first time. The Pakistani fans went berserk on the streets of the country after the comprehensive win and the players received a gigantic welcome on their return back to the nation.

Prayers helped us win

Sarfraz wasted no time in thanking the fans for their massive support and said “I’m really thankful to Allah for providing us with so much honour and giving us the opportunity to enhance our reputation. In addition, it is our parents’ and fans’ prayers that got us to this place,”

The 30-year-old was honoured to share the screen with Pakistani bowling legends Wasim Akram and Shoaib Akhtar whom he grew up watching on TV. Sarfraz said, “usually saw on the field, rather than on a TV show”. All the three cricketers concluded the show by wishing all the viewers and Pakistanis a Happy Eid in advance.
