Pakistan wicket-keeper batsman Mohammad Rizwan has many admirers, but not all can travel over a thousand kilometers on a two-wheeler to meet their favorite star. 

A fan, named Ejaz, met Rizwan on Thursday at National Stadium Karachi after travelling over 1100 km on a motorbike from Okara, Punjab to Karachi.  

The wicket-keeper batsman accepted a picture from the fan and autographed his shirt. He then hugged him and thanked him for his support. 

Ejaz, who belongs to Depalpur area of Okara, travelled the long distance on a motorbike decorated with pictures of his favorite cricketer and Pakistan flags. The bike also had “I’m a huge fan of Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam and I want to meet them and I’m hopeful they will meet me,” written on it in Urdu.

He was circling around the stadium for the last three days in hopes of meeting his favorite players.
