Teacher Caught Grading Papers Mid-Match Sparks Debate On Education During PSL
A teacher marking papers during a PSL match goes viral, sparking debate on education priorities as cricket fever grips Pakistan amid thrilling games and unexpected moments in PSL 2025.
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025 has been full of action on and off the field—grabbing attention not only for thrilling cricket but also for moments that have gone viral online.
One such moment came during a PSL match when a school teacher was caught on camera marking students' answer sheets while watching the game live in the stadium. The clip quickly spread across social media, raising serious questions about priorities in the country's education system.
"A country’s future lies in the hands of its children, and it is the role of educators to nurture them through quality teaching and values. However, the recent incident paints a troubling picture."
The teacher was seen focusing on the match while correcting papers. When the camera zoomed in, a young fan sitting next to her noticed the unusual sight and pointed it out. The teacher quickly shut the notebook, clearly embarrassed.

Cricket is deeply loved in both India and Pakistan. And while India has the Indian Premier League (IPL), Pakistan created its own version, the PSL, in 2015. But even with years of effort, the PSL still faces criticism, sometimes from its own former players.
Moreover, people in the comment section were seen supporting her, as one of the users said, "Things parents do for their Children." Another one wrote, "Ma'am ka mood Sahi rahega tu bacho ko achy marks milngy."
Another funny and surprising moment happened during a PSL match when a fan was seen watching an IPL game on their phone inside the stadium. Instead of following the live PSL match, the spectator streamed the Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals clash.
The slip-ups didn’t end there. On April 22, during the post-match presentation of Match 12 between Multan Sultans and Lahore Qalandars, former cricketer and now commentator Ramiz Raja made a big mistake. While praising Irish bowler Joshua Little for taking a great catch, Raja accidentally called it the “Catch of the IPL” instead of PSL.

The match between Karachi Kings and Peshawar Zalmi on April 21 also made headlines for its exciting finish. Peshawar scored 147/8, led by Babar Azam’s steady 46 runs. But Karachi Kings, under David Warner’s captaincy, chased it down in 19.3 overs, winning by 2 wickets. Warner’s 60 runs off 47 balls, including 8 fours, proved crucial.
