Veteran Pakistan all-rounder Mohammad Hafeez has revealed that he grew out his mustache since he got a lot of support from his teammates and the fans.
Hafeez’s mustache has grabbed the spotlight at the World Cup as many people have been mimicking the way he twirls it.
Pakistan head coach Mickey Arthur even said that the 38-year-old is “very fashion conscious”.
"Especially me and all the juniors – he really guides us."

“All the teammates really praised it by the time I was growing it, and then obviously some of the fans really liked it, so I thought why not. That gave me a little more confidence,” Hafeez said in a video posted on Twitter by the International Cricket Council (ICC).
Pakistan’s next World Cup match will be against Australia in Taunton on Wednesday.
