A few days a video featuring Afghanistan cricket team skipper Mohammed Nabi went viral on the internet. In the short clip, Nabi could be seen getting emotional as Afghanistan’s national anthem was played before the match in the ICC T20 World Cup 2021. 

Notably, after the takeover by the Taliban, Afghanistan’s national flag has been replaced while the anthem has been banned in the country. Meanwhile, the video of Nabi getting emotional during the national anthem didn’t go well with the Taliban.

It is learned that the Taliban has issued a notice to all the cricket players to suppress their emotions during the T20 World Cup. The Afghanistan government has strictly ordered the Afghanistan cricket team to not get emotional or break down seeing the country’s flag as per a report published by News Nine.
