Pakistani bowler Hasan Ali has come under criticism for his actions at the India-Pakistan border.

Ali has been criticised on social media after he disrupted the daily ceremony held at Wagah-Attari border with his ‘victory dance’ on Saturday.

The Pakistan cricket team was visiting the Wagah Border to watch the flag lowering ceremony after their training camp.

The Pakistan cricket board tweeted a picture of the team visiting the historic site.
As the ceremony kicked off, a video shows Ali walking towards the border where the soldiers are seen carrying out their daily ceremony where the flags are lowered every evening by the Border Security Force on the Indian side and Pakistani Rangers on the other side.  

Ali is seen disrupting the ceremony with his signature ‘wicket-taking’ action.
