In the ongoing Pakistan’s warm-up game against Prime Minister XI, the scoreboard read ‘P**I’, instead of PAK, which created quite a controversy on social media. The word ‘P**I’ is offensive in nature and is used against people of South Asian descent, which made a lot of fans furious. Australian journalist Danny Saeed initially pointed out the mistake, for which Cricket Australia (CA) had to later clarify with an apology.
