Irfan Pathan blasted Pakistan's PM for taking a sly dig at Team India. Former cricketer gave a befitting response to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif who shared a cheeky dig at the Indian cricket team after its ten-wicket loss to England in the ICC T20 World Cup semifinal earlier this week. "So, this Sunday, it's: 152/0 vs 170/0 #T20WorldCup," Pakistan PM had tweeted. The post immediately went viral with Sharif receiving flak for his tweet.
On the eve of Pakistan's World Cup final against England at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, former India all-rounder responded to Sharif's tweet. "Aap mein or hum mein fark yehi hai. Hum apni khushi se khush or aap dusre ke taklif se. Is liye khud ke mulk ko behtar karne pe dhyan nahi hai (This is the difference between you and us. We are happy with ourselves, you look for happiness when others are in trouble. That is why you are not concentrating on your country's well-being)," tweeted Irfan.
Irfan's tweet was lauded by netizens. They loved the way the Indian cricketer gave a befitting response to the Pak PM. Here's what they said:
