Young Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan attracted the eyeballs of the cricket after an entry song was played on his entry. Notably, the in-stadia DJ at the University Oval in Dunedin played the renowned WWE superstar The Big Show’s entrance music when Azam Khan arrived there in the middle to bat in the third T20I of the five-match series.

The video of this particular moment was shared by a Pakistani journalist over X (formerly Twitter).

“Pathetic from the hosts to play The Big Show's entrance music when Azam Khan came out to bat. Pakistan Cricket Board should take it up with New Zealand,” wrote the Pakistan journalist in his X-post (formerly Twitter). The video immediately went viral as soon it was shared.

Here’s the video of Azam Khan making his entry on The Big Show’s entrance music:

Speaking of the action of the third T20I of the five-match series between Pakistan and New Zealand, the visiting skipper Shaheen Afridi won the toss and once again he decided to bowl first; batting first, Finn Allen smashed a blistering century, scoring 137 runs off just 62 balls, hitting 5 fours and 16 massive sixes, aggregating an outstanding strike rate of 220.96.

Besides him, wicketkeeper-batter Tim Seifert also scored 31 runs off 23 balls, with 3 fours and a six followed by Glenn Phillips’ 19 runs off 15 balls, with a four and a six. On the back of these knocks, the Blackcaps posted a big total of 224 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in the allotted 20 overs.

While chasing the target, Pakistan couldn’t chase the target and got restricted to the score of only 179 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in the entire 20 overs. Eventually, New Zealand won the match by 45 runs and registered an unassailable lead of 3-0 in the five-match series.

Here’s how fans reacted to Azam Khan’s entry song:
