Former Pakistan cricket captain Shahid Afridi has been spotted learning the javelin throw technique from Olympic gold medalist Arshad Nadeem.

The video circulating on social media shows Afridi practicing the javelin throw under the guidance of Nadeem, who won the gold medal at the Paris Olympics.

In the video, Nadeem can be seen explaining the proper throwing technique to Afridi, who tries his hand at the javelin throw after receiving instructions.

Nadeem's training has gained attention, given his historic win at the Paris Olympics, where he defeated India’s Neeraj Chopra to clinch the gold medal.

Arshad Nadeem made history by setting the longest throw in Olympic history at 92.97 meters, marking a milestone for Pakistan in athletics.

He became the first Pakistani Olympian to win a medal since the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.

The video has become a talking point on social media, showing a light-hearted moment of learning between two sports icons.
