Furry love story in PSL arena: Sheru dewy-eyed for Erin Holland

KARACHI: Behind the energy and thrill of the Pakistan Super League (PSL), an unexpected love story has captured the hearts of fans both on and off the pitch.

Before the finale between Islamabad United and Multan Sultans, where Muhamamd Rizwan and Shadab Khan will bring their boys to battle it out on the field, one furry friend has decided to focus his energies on wooing the Australian beauty.

Erin Holland, the Australian commentator who has been with PSL for ages, has captured the heart of Islamabad United’s mascot Sheru. Sheru took to Instagram and posted a picture of himself with Erin, with a picture-perfect backdrop of the cricket field. He poured his heart out with the caption, “Heart on the pitch and love in the air! Just couldn’t help falling head over paws for the charm and grace of the incredible [Erin Holland]”.

The Instagram post sent ripples of excitement through the cricketing community.

The dynamic sports commentator from Australia, who has been lighting up the commentary box during PSL-9, responded in her signature infectious energy with grace and humour, gently reminding the furry charmer that her heart already belongs to another. “Adorable but I am taken,” she wrote.

Meanwhile, another news broke that Erin’s husband and former PSL player, Ben Cutting, had expedited his ticket booking to Pakistan. Cutting has applied for an urgent visa.

Unfettered, Sheru declared, “Love knows no boundaries.”

Islamabad United face Multan Sultans tonight in the PSL-9 final at National Stadium Karachi. Along with the cricketing thrill, fans are now eagerly looking forward to how this furry heartwarming romance unfolds as well.
