• Irfan Pathan, who played cricket for India in the past, is currently facing backlash after making a snide remark against the Pakistani cricket squad
• It happened during the Twenty20 World Cup that is currently being played in Australia

Pathan took to his Twitter account on Wednesday, after Pakistan had defeated New Zealand by a score of seven wickets and secured a spot for themselves in the championship match of the competition, and he tweeted that even though Pakistan had won the match, the team was still “graceless.”

“Padosiyon jeet ati jaati rehti hai, lekin GRACE apke bas ki baat nahi hai (Neighbours, winning or losing is part of the game but maintaining grace is not your cup of tea),” the cricketer said.

His “immaturity” was called out by Pakistani fans in response to the tweet, and he received a lot of criticism as a result.

Irfan tweeted once more with the following clarification after getting the criticism: “And this is not for the player. NEVER.”

However, when England defeated India by 10 wickets on Thursday, Pakistani cricket fans, who were already upset with Pathan’s snarky tweets, did everything in their power to insult the 38-year-old star on social media.

Some responses are listed below:
