The incident was narrated by ABC commentator Allison Mitchell while commentating during the test match between Pakistan and Australia in Brisbane.
Allison took a ride with the same taxi driver to the Gabba stadium in Brisbane for the first Test match between Australia and Pakistan.
During the ride, the taxi driver told her that he had picked up the Pakistani cricketers from their hotel in Brisbane and had taken them to an Indian restaurant.
Upon their arrival at the restaurant, the driver refused to take fare from them. The Pakistani players invited him for dinner instead.
