The former Pakistan captain, who is part of the commentary panel for the tournament hosted by India and Sri Lanka, referred to Pakistan batter Natalia Pervaiz as hailing from “Azad Kashmir” during Pakistan's match against Bangladesh in Colombo.

“A lot of these players are new, Natalia comes from Kashmir... Azad Kashmir but has played most of her cricket in Lahore,” Mir said on air.
