The speedster discusses how Muslims celebrate Eid and what they eat, wear, and how they greet one another. Naseem continues by stating that the Sheer Khurma is really significant to us.
“First of all, we dress differently for morning prayers. We prepare this dish for Eid after the prayers,” he declared.
The pacer then demonstrated how everyone gathers after prayers by hugging them. He also discusses Eidi with them.
The Kiwi players afterwards sample the Sheer Khurma and discuss culture.
