The 'Mauka' man is back to his roots again after briefly switching sides to India, and he has removed the Indian jersey to put on Pakistan's jersey in the latest 'Mauka Mauka' promo by Star Sports, courtesy of Misbah-ul Haq's men's win over South Africa in a nail-biting World Cup tie.

Pakistan have made a strong comeback in the tournament after recording three back-to-back wins following their defeats in their first two World Cup ties. Their latest win came over a strong South African side in a nail-biting match on Saturday.

Hence, the 'Mauka Mauka' man from Karachi is finally happy and hopeful of Pakistan's winning run in the tournament, The Dawn reported.

In the last 'Mauka Mauka' promo, he was seen sporting an Indian jersey -only because if India is to win their next tie against Ireland on March 10, the possibility of Pakistan making to the quarterfinals would remain alive. However, Pakistan has already bagged a spot into the quarterfinals following their win over South Africa.

Star Sports had said on social media, after the video with their next addition of the advertisement, that 'Jeet India Ki, Par Mauka Pakistan Ka! ?#?MaukaMauka ?#?INDvIRE', which means that it is a win for India, but a chance for Pakistan.

The 'Mauka Mauka' campaign started when the first ad was launched that showed India defeating Pakistan in the World Cup five times in a row since 1992.

The first advertisement, which went viral on social media, showed the Pakistani fan watching India vs Pakistan matches in 1992, 1996, 1999, 2003 and 2011, and bringing out fireworks every time the crunch tie is on, but doesn't get to light them, the report added.
