Asia Cup returned to Pakistan after almost 15 years but the opening game between hosts Pakistan and Nepal in Multan saw very little crowd.
The opening ceremony happened in front of an almost empty stadium as fans trolled Pakistan cricket.
Few Pakistan fans also gave some clarification and stated that since the first game happened on a working day, fans will gradually fill up the stadium.
Pakistan skipper Babar Azam won the toss and elected to bat in the opening match of the Asia Cup against Nepal on Wednesday.
The Pakistan skipper said there is no extra pressure of playing at home and the payers just want to enjoy "our cricket and give our best".
Nepal skipper Rohit Paudel said on their Asia Cup debut that his players were happy to be playing on the big stage.
"The players and people (are) happy as it's their first Asia Cup game. We are used to these conditions, it's a beautiful wicket to bat on."
