The meal was called “Shinwari Rosh or Mutton Rosh,” which is a famous dish in Pakistan.

After preparing the meal the Afghanistan team offered prayers before sharing it with the Sri Lankan players.

While enjoying the meal, Sri Lankan cricketer Chamika Karunarathna said while he has had mutton before, this was a special dish.

“I do not know who prepared this mutton meal, but I will ask them the recipe,” he said, clearly enjoying the meal prepared by the Afghan cricketers and said that he would make the dish for the entire team at the Asia Cup tournament.

Meanwhile, Sri Lankan Captain Dasun Shanaka also said he was having this meal for the first time and said he enjoyed it and also sharing a moment of camaraderie with the Afghan team. (Chaturanga Pradeep Samarawickrama)
