“On our first day in Brisbane, we didn’t know where there was an Indian or Pakistani restaurant. So when the five of us stepped out — Imran Khan, me, Naseem Shah, Musa and Shaheen Shah — we saw a cab and hailed it,” Shah said in the video.
“We saw he was a ‘Paa ji’ (Sardarji) from India. So we spoke to him in Urdu and asked him to take us to a nice restaurant. He recognised us and chatted with us about cricket and about him,” the spinner continued. When we reached, he refused to take our fare,” Shah added.
“So I told him if you are not taking our fare, you have to join us for dinner,” Shah continued.
Shah said the driver agreed for the dinner and was very happy that we offered him dinner and clicked pictures with them.
Pakistani will now face the hosts in the second affair which is a Day/Night game starting here on Friday.
