The ongoing ICC ODI World Cup 2023 has completed its half journey and in this duration, we have seen three upsets, one was done by Netherlands when they defeated South Africa and two have been done by Afghanistan as first they defeated the defending champions, England and yesterday they defeated Pakistan in the match which was played at Chepauk stadium, Chennai. This match was quite special for Afghanistan as this was the first time ever that they defeated Pakistan in the ODI format.
However, other than Afghanistan’s fearless, confident and dominant style of playing, one more thing that is getting discussed on social media is the video in which Iftikhar Ahmed is seen talking to nobody.
During the Afghanistan innings when they were batting at the score of 152/1, Mohammad Rizwan and Shaheen Shah Afridi came towards Shadab Khan and then the three discussed their game plan but Iftikhar Ahmed was also captured talking but there was no one seen with him.
This left many confused as they were not able to understand to whom Iftikhar Ahmed is talking, if he was having a conversation with someone using earphone or he was giving a pep talk to himself or the player with whom he was talking didn’t come in the frame of the camera, etc.

Hello @ICC @BCCI are these players allowed to wear AirPods/EarBuds during the match ? Please check with whom Iftikhar Ahmed talking to 🤔
