It has been a few days when Sana Mir used Cricket as a playground for her political narrative. While talking about Natalia Pervaiz during the game against Bangladesh, she uttered the word “Azad Kashmir” after saying “Kashmir”. Now a recent video of her has surfaced where she could be seen condeming the act of Team India for withholding handshake with Pakistani team in Asia Cup match on 14th September 2025.

According to her, Indian players were under pressure because their legends team had done similar thing when they backed out against Pakistan in legends league match in July 2025.

She also accused the ICC for being biased towards India. According to her, the ICC was strict in its action when they reprimanded Usman Khwaja for voicing his support to Palestine. She also opined that the likes of Mohsin Naqvi was helpless when India declined handshake in 14th September Asia cup match against Pak.

From the sentiments of Sana Mir, it appears to us that she sought for Tit For Tat and therefore could have deliberately made the statement “Azad Kashmir” in order to hurt the sentiments of the Indians knowing fully well that her commentary feed would be aired in India.

Sana Mir is a former Pakistani cricketer who is recently trending on the Internet for her statement during commentary where she described Natalia Pervaiz as from “Azad Kashmir”, the land which India calls Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir.

The statement is deemed political and controversial as India considers “Azad Kashmir” as “Pak Occupied Kashmir”. The Former Pakistani cricketer made the remark during the Pakistan-Sri Lanka match when Natalia came into bat.

Sana Mir cited that she took reference from a well-known cricket-related website and that they have changed it now to “Pakistan-administered Kashmir” from “Azad Kashmir”. ^Ref.

We recently checked the website cricinfo and found that they have cited Natalia as someone from “Azad Kashmir”.

What is eyebrow-raising is the fact that Sana Mir sort of emphasized the statement when she made the remark. She said “She is from Kashmir, Azad Kashmir” ^Ref.

Sana Mir is not married as of September 2025. In an interview she told that she got proposals from Pakistani cricketers but declined them as she was unable to give committment to them due to her cricketing career. ^Ref.
