Women's World Cup: Ex-Pakistan Player Sana Mir In Trouble After Controversial Reference To POK
Asian Cricket Council President Mohsin: Former captain of the Pakistan women's team, Sana Mir, has landed in a hot soup after making a politically-motivated reference to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (POK) while on commentary duty during her country's match against Bangladesh in the ongoing ICC Women's ODI World Cup 2025.
Sana Mir, who was on duty in the match that Pakistan lost to Bangladesh by 89 runs in their opening match, made the controversial remark in reference to the part of Kashmir occupied by her country, which has not gone down well with Indian fans.
During Pakistan's batting, she mentioned that cricketer Natalia Pervaiz was from 'Azad Kashmir', instead of 'Pakistan-occupied Kashmir'. Initially, Mir had said that the player was from "Kashmir" but swiftly corrected herself to say "Azad Kashmir".
