Other Side of Nawaz Sharif’s Grandson Ruling The Polo World

Besides belonging to an eminent political family, Nawaz Sharif’s grandson Muhammad Junaid Safdar became the second Pakistani player to play polo for the University of Cambridge. 

The Guards Polo Club on Sunday organized a match between the University of Oxford and Cambridge and the event was attended by the former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif along with his family members.

 Although the Oxford team won the title, the horse of Junaid Safdar was recognized as the ‘Best Playing Pony’ for scoring all 3 goals for his side.

Apart from Junaid Safdar, the Cambridge team has been fortunate enough for Pakistanis as Supreme Court judge Justice Yahya Afridi had also represented the same team in the polo match during his student years.

Currently, the 25-year-old Junaid Safdar is enrolled at the Cambridge University as a law student after he completed his master’s degree in International Relations (IR) from the London School of Economics (LSE) in 2019.

Moreover, Junaid is a Durham University graduate in politics and got another master’s degree from the University College London in 2017.
