Bazid Khan used the term kuffar to toot gaya ensuing Pakistan’s win against India at the T20 World Cup 2021
At the end of the day, for Pakistan, defeating India in the T20 World Cup 2021 was all a means to express their outlandish religious supremacy.
“Kuffar to toot gaya,” Term Used By Bazid Khan During Interview With Babar Azam
The narrative was alluded towards in the interview between Bazid Khan, an ex-Pakistani cricketer and current ICC commentator and captain Babar Azam. The commentator remarked, “Lekin kufr to toot gaya,” to which Azam replied, “All because of Allah.”
The usage of the word kufr which is used to refer to non-believers has left a slew of people seething given the religious message tried to convey by Bazid. “In case you are wondering what kufr toot gaya means, it comes from the idiom. “Laye us butt (idols) ko iltija kar ke, kufr (non-Muslim) tuta khuda khuda karke” Translation: “Idols prayed by kafir (non-Muslim) were finally broken, and Islam won,” an user on Twitter went onto tweet as he explained the full context of the words used.

Meanwhile, others have leapt in defense on Bazid with them justifying the usage of the term by claiming it means a curse has been broken in Urdu.
The India vs Pakistan showdown on Sunday was one mired in controversy, one which stemmed from the Indian team deciding to take the knee in support of Black Lives Matter. While there’s been no comment till date from the BCCI or the Indian camp on the exodus of migrant Hindu workers in Kashmir and the mass killing of Hindus in Bangladesh, the team’s decision to support a woke cause received colossal backlash.
