Javed Afridi, a passionate cricket fan and the owner of Peshawar Zalmi, initiated a tweet about Darren Sammy, about how he should be made an honorary citizen:
Will request Govt of Pakistan to offer Honorary Citizenship (Nationality) for @darrensammy88 ,with regards to his love for this Nation.

Poor Darren Sammy. So young. So excited.
It’s okay Sammy boy, with your crazy Pashto skills, we’ll still count you as Pakistani!
