The elated fan, Fawad, expressed his happiness at receiving the memento from his favourite cricketer.
Hundreds of fans gave Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed a hero´s welcome as he arrived home carrying the Champions Trophy early on Tuesday.
Men, women and children packed Karachi airport as Sarfraz returned from England.
Sarfraz held up the trophy to loud cheers and chants of "Long live Sarfraz!" as a police band played patriotic songs nearby.
"(We won) thanks to Allah and the prayers of the whole nation," Sarfraz said in brief comments as he jostled his way through the crowd of well-wishers.
The celebrations did not end once he reached his residential block in central Karachi, adorned with colourful lights and Pakistan flags, where fans climbed on rooftops and balconies to watch him return.
Sarfraz came out on the balcony with the trophy and showed it off to fans, waving and making the victory sign with two fingers as the crowds outside threw rose petals. He also took selfies of the memorable reception.
