Cricket is an interesting game but it's the love of the fans that makes it even better. The COVID-19 pandemic forced players to play without spectators for almost two years and this also took a toll on them. However, with a decline in the third wave of the pandemic, stadiums across the globe have started allowing some crowd at match venues.
Fans are there to witness Australia's historic tour of Pakistan in 24 years. The first two Tests ended in a draw but gave a load of entertainment to the fans. And now since the series decider is underway at the Gaddafi stadium in Lahore, fans have gathered in large numbers to support the respective teams to claim the historic series.
The Pakistani fans have won the internet with interesting banners throughout the Test series. While a few banners involving Australian cricketer Marnus Labuschagne's name pronunciation went viral the latest banner involving Mitchell Starc has started doing rounds on the internet. A fan was spotted with a banner for Mitchell Starc but not with his name written on it.
During the second day of the third Test between Australia and Pakistan, a girl was seen holding a banner that had written: "I came to see Alyssa's husband". As everyone already knows Mitchell Starc is the husband of Australian cricketer Alyssa Healy. This unique banner from the fan caught the attention of the cameraman as well as many other spectators on the ground and in no time the picture went viral.
Alyssa Healy reacts!
As more people shared the picture, the fan's message reached where it was destined for. Alyssa Healy got to see the love she was receiving back in Pakistan and asked the journalist (who shared the picture on his timeline saying it was his new favorite banner in Pakistan) to give the girl the blender. While commenting on the Tweet, Healy wrote "Give her the blender!!".
