Babar Azam won the trophy, but the celebration became the bigger headline. After Peshawar Zalmi won PSL 2026, Babar lifted the trophy in a now-familiar style. The slow walk, the pause, and the final lift looked instantly recognizable. That is because both Babar Azam and Rohit Sharma borrowed it from Lionel Messi. Messi made that trophy walk iconic after winning the FIFA World Cup in 2022. Rohit used the same celebration after India’s T20 World Cup win in 2024. That version looked emotional, natural, and instantly legendary. Babar tried the same idea after Zalmi’s title win in PSL 2026. But while the trophy was real, the internet said the aura felt borrowed. And within minutes, the celebration became more meme than moment. Same inspiration, same pose, same trophy — but the internet only called one iconic. #BabarAzam #RohitSharma #LionelMessi #psl2026 Disclaimer: We do not own or claim rights to any videos, images, or audio used in this post; all content belongs to its respective owners and is shared strictly for news reporting, informational, educational, and commentary purposes under fair use as permitted by Section 107 of the Copyright Act.
