Former Pakistan cricketer and ex-PCB chief Ramiz Raja made a bizarre statement on a Pakistani TV show about Portuguese football star Cristiano Ronaldo and his diet plan, which he says is curated by the scientists of America’s National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

Ronaldo is famous for his exemplary fitness. Even star India batter Virat Kohli, who has also inspired a generation of cricketers with his fitness, has also praised the star footballer for the same. Even at the age of 38, Ronaldo is fit enough to compete with the best players of the current generation.

While talking about the diet plans of athletes, Ramiz Raja made this claim about NASA making Ronaldo’s diet plan and this has gone viral.

"Ronaldo's ki jo diet plan hai vo NASA ke scientists set karte hain (Ronaldo's diet plan is curated by scientists at NASA)," Ramiz said on Suno News.

Ronaldo has already scored 46 goals this year, also setting up 12 in the process. He is the third-highest scorer this calendar year, only behind Manchester City's Erling Haaland (48) and Bayern Munich's Harry Kane (47).

Ronaldo started both games as Portugal defeated Lichtenstein and Iceland in the EURO 2024 Qualifiers last week. Portugal had already qualified for the tournament in Germany the next year, but needed wins in both games to maintain a 100 percent record in qualifiers.

Meanwhile, Ramiz Raja’s claims gave social media some fodder to troll the ex-cricketer for what he said about Ronaldo, and users on X had a field day.

Here are some reactions:
