Pakistani film star Kubra Khan has recently disclosed that while she is not a really involved in cricket, there is only one person who triggers her interest in the sport.

Despite the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 buzz in the air, the 30-year-old actress said that she has no special interest in cricket during a recent interview with Geo News.

However, she accepted that there is only one person who inspires her to watch the sport and that turned out to be Naseem Shah, Pakistan's young fast-bowling sensation.

She said: "Naseem is the best player in our cricket team and the way he played against India in the T20 World Cup, it was admirable."

Furthermore, Kubra lamented that she was saddened that the talented players in the team faced criticism despite their good performance.

It is worth noting that this is not the first time the young cricketer has had celebrities rooting for him.

Previously, Indian actress Urvashi Rautela has also confessed to being a fan of the 21-year-old fast-bowler. She also made headlines for sparking rumours of a connection with Naseem during the Asia Cup 2022.

Earlier this week, another Indian actress, Sonam Bajwa, expressed she was a fan of Naseem, as she shared a reel on her Instagram Story showing him comforting a young fan during a meet-and-greet session.

Bajwa captioned it: "So wholesome and cute."
