Have you forgotten Irfan Pathan’s dance? The same one he did after Afghanistan’s victory over Pakistan in the World Cup 2023. And, if you have forgotten, then it doesn’t matter, Irfan Pathan has now shared another video of his dance.
This time too the dance happened on Afghanistan’s victory. The only difference is that this time the team that lost to Afghanistan was not Pakistan but England. On the other hand, in the 8th match of Champions Trophy 2025, Afghanistan defeated England by 8 runs and here Irfan Pathan posted a video of his dance. However, Afghanistan team player Rashid Khan has objected to his dance.
Why did Rashid object to Irfan Pathan’s dance?
Rashid Khan has an objection to the fact that Irfan Pathan danced without him. After his team’s victory over England, he saw Irfan Pathan’s dance video and commented – Bhaijaan dance without me. After this, he thanked Irfan for his constant support.

Batting first, Afghanistan scored 325 runs in 50 overs thanks to Ibrahim Zadran’s big innings of 177 runs. In reply, Joe Root scored a century for England, who came out to chase the target of 326 runs, ending the wait of 2083 days. But the target still remained 8 runs short. England’s team was all out and could only score 317 runs.
PAK lost to AFG in WC 2023, Irfan Rashid danced with them
This was the fourth ODI encounter between Afghanistan and England. After this match, the ODI record between the two teams is now 2-2. Afghanistan had earlier defeated England in the World Cup 2023. This means that Afghanistan has now defeated England twice in the ICC tournament.
In the same ICC event held on Indian soil, Afghanistan had defeated Pakistan by 8 wickets, after which Irfan Pathan was seen dancing on the field along with the players of the Afghan team, which also included Rashid Khan.
