Shaheen Afridi’s awkward reply to Ramiz Raja after PSL ball controversy goes viral. Watch what happened in the final over drama.
A viral post-match video from Pakistan Super League 2026 has put Shaheen Afridi under intense scrutiny after a ball-tampering controversy cost Lahore Qalandars a crucial game against Karachi Kings. Within minutes of the match ending, Ramiz Raja publicly questioned Shaheen on-air. The Lahore captain appeared visibly uncertain, admitting he needed to “see the video” before commenting - a response that has now gone viral and triggered debate across cricket circles.
Ramiz Raja to Shaheen Afridi:
"The ball was taken from you at the end because of the ball tempering so what are your thoughts on that?"
Shaheen Afridi:
"I don’t know about this. We will see that in cameras. We will discuss who did that." pic.twitter.com/j2f8ofri3y
The controversy erupted in the 19th over when Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf and Fakhar Zaman were seen handling the ball moments before the final over.
Karachi capitalised instantly, sealing the chase within three balls. The decision effectively flipped the match and became the defining moment of the contest.
The post-match exchange is now the biggest talking point.
When pressed by Ramiz Raja about the alleged ball-tampering, Shaheen struggled to give a clear answer:
“I don't know about this, and we'll see if it's there in the camera and discuss what it is. Actually, five runs were taken and we can't do anything.”
Ramiz did not back off and questioned the sequence of events around the ball change.
Shaheen responded with a defensive clarification:
“I can only speak for myself. There was never any attempt on my part to change the condition of the ball, or even to try.”
He further added:
“Unless we see the proof, I think it's a big decision. I have not been called for an enquiry.”
This is not just a single controversial call. It hits multiple layers:
Historically, ball-tampering incidents - from international cricket to franchise leagues - have led to suspensions and long-term scrutiny. Even the perception of wrongdoing can shift narratives quickly.
In high-pressure T20 finishes, even a 5-run swing changes field placements, bowling strategy, and batter intent. Karachi needed just one boundary less and that proved decisive.
