Shut your mouth and focus on cricket: PML-N’s Hina Butt lashes out at Hafeez

Published on: March 10, 2021 4:01 PM

PML-N’s Hina Pervaiz Butt a couple of days in the past lashed out at Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Hafeez, after the latter praised PM Imran Khan on twitter.

PML-N politician Hina Pervaiz Butt told Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Hafeez to “shut up and focus on cricket” days ago after the versatile player took to social media to congratulate Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Tensions have mounted between the government and opposition parties since Dr Abdul Hafeez Shaikh lost the senatorial elections in Islamabad to former Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani.

In the days that followed, when the Prime Minister managed to secure a vote of confidence from Parliament, Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Hafeez took to Twitter to like the Prime Minister.

Taking a jab at the versatile batsman Butt wrote in a tweet, “Pakistan’s coronation was laughed at all over the world due to non-compliance with Corona SOPs and now you are supporting a vote thief. It is better to play cricket with your mouth shut and do not comment on politics.”

کورونا ایس او پیز پر عمل نہ کرنے کی وجہ سے پوری دنیا میں پاکستان کی جگ ہنسائی ہوئی اور اب ایک ووٹ چور کو سپورٹ کر رہے ہو۔ بہتر ہے منہ بند کر کے کرکٹ کھیلیں اور سیاست پر تبصرہ مت کریں https://t.co/0ufTKjeKyl

The tweet apparently did not sit well with PML-N’s Hina Pervaiz But, who lashed out at the cricketer, telling him to avoid discussing politics and focus on cricket instead.

“Pakistan [cricket] has become a laughing stock around the world for failing to implement coronavirus SOPs and now you are supporting a vote thief,” Butt lashed out on Twitter.
