Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2026 has been making headlines almost every day for all the wrong reasons. Within just a week of its commencement, the Pakistan-based T20 league has witnessed several overseas stars opting out, along with ball-tampering allegations involving Fakhar Zaman, Shaheen Afridi, and Haris Rauf. Even the playing conditions have come under scrutiny, triggering a meme fest across social media platforms. On Thursday, Karachi Kings registered a five-wicket win over Rawalpindi, but the match still managed to provide fresh meme material for fans.
Following the victory, Karachi Kings batter Azam Khan, who was named Player of the Match for his blistering 74-run knock off 34 balls, appeared for the post-match interaction with the host broadcaster. However, the segment was abruptly interrupted by rain, forcing the presenter to rush off to fetch umbrellas to prevent the moment from being spoiled.

Former West Indies all-rounder Carlos Brathwaite, who was present during the interaction, held an umbrella over Azam as he answered the questions. The heartwarming and humorous moment quickly went viral on social media, sparking a fresh wave of memes.

Meanwhile, during the same match, another awkward moment involving Karachi Kings batter David Warner caught fans’ attention. Warner was among the standout performers for Karachi, scoring 50 runs off 46 balls and laying the foundation for the successful 198-run chase. However, after the match, Warner was caught in an awkward conversation with some of his teammates, prompting Team Director Haider Azhar to step in and intervene.
A fan asked Haider on social media what the incident was about. However, it was Warner who responded.
“What was the conversation going on here @HaiderAzhar, Good win Alhamdu Lillah, No one can stop us this Season in Sha Allah,” the fan asked.
Replying to the post, Warner said that he asked Haider to go and shake hands with the players of the opponent team first. “I said to @HaiderAzhar to go first and shake hands,” he said.
