In a heartwarming gesture, met the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) supporter who was hit by one of the southpaw’s sixes during his side’s six-wicket victory against Gujarat Titans (GT), at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, on Saturday, April 12. The hard-hitting batter invited Nabeel to the stadium and gifted him a cap signed by him, a day ahead of LSG’s ongoing encounter against Delhi Capitals.
The West Indian asked him whether he was doing all right. Nabeel wore a cheerful expression while sharing his experience. He also said that he wouldn’t mind getting hit again as long as LSG win. Moreover, the Lucknow fan seemed excited to come and watch the upcoming game against DC.
“I’m feeling great, Pooran sir called and invited me here. I met him and he even asked if I was fine. I’m coming for the game as well. It doesn’t matter if I get hit, but our Lucknow team should keep on winning. Our team won that day, that’s what made me happy. This is our team, the trophy is our dream,” stated Nabeel in a video shared by LSG on their official X account.
