WATCH: Umar Gul, his wife exchange sweet banter on Twitter

Afghanistan have been brilliant in the Asia Cup 2022, becoming the first side to qualify for the Super Four.

Mohammad Nabi-led's side have won both the encounters they've played so far. The team kicked off their campaign with an eight-wicket win against Sri Lanka. In the second clash against Bangladesh, the Afghanistan bowling unit once again stood up to the task. This time they restricted Bangladesh for a paltry 127/7 in 20 overs, a chased down in 18.3 overs.

Considering the Afghanistan bowlers' clinical display, fans and experts believe that it won't be a surprise if they achieve the same against relatively bigger opponents such as India and Pakistan. 

Meanwhile, Dr Mariam Naqsh, wife of Umar Gul, the bowling coach of Afghanistan, has made a special request to her husband.

Responding to a tweet by the former Pakistan pacer, where he congratulated his players for advancing to the Super Four, Naqsh urged her husband to have a soft corner while playing against Pakistan.

Pakistan k khilaf zara haat hola rakhna coach saab 🙈🙈 congratulations 🎉 https://t.co/VAmlAleWUz

The adorable exchange between the two didn't stop here as Gul responded back to the tweet with laughing emoticons and finished it with "ok". Naqsh then tried to respond and wrote that he has put under weird tension.

Matlab ajeeb tension may daldia hy 😂

There is a high chance of Pakistan meeting Afghanistan in the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup 2022.

Pakistan started their campaign with a five-wicket defeat against India on August 28 and will play Hong Kong in their next encounter on Friday.
