Iram Javed turns beatboxer

In a video that was posted by ICC, young batter Iram Javed was seen showcasing her beatboxing skills as her team-mates joined her to have some fun. The other players seen in the video include Muneeba Ali, Sadia Iqbal and wicket-keeper batter Sidra Nawaz. In the video, Iram was seen showcasing her talent by using a bat as the mike. The ICC had also called them 'Absolute Rockstars'. Watch the video here.

The video kicked off a flurry of responses, and while many were horrid, some were complimentary while others were permissably banterous:
