LONDON, England – After England defeated Pakistan in the T20 World Cup final on Sunday, Indian pacer Mohammed Shami made fun of renowned Pakistani fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar.

After Pakistan’s Babar Azam-led team failed to win the World T20 title on Sunday, legendary fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar was distraught. At the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Jos Buttler’s England team defeated Pakistan to win their second T20 World Cup championship after defeating Rohit Sharma-led Team India in the second semifinal (MCG). Following England’s historic victory over Pakistan in the summit match, Indian pacer Mohammed Shami decided to slyly mock former Pakistani pacer Akhtar on Twitter.

After Ben Stokes led England to victory in the T20 World Cup at the MCG, Akhtar vented his frustration on the microblogging platform by sending out a tweet with a heartbroken emoji. After seeing Akhtar’s post, Indian speed merchant Shami responded to the former Pakistani bowler with a startling retort. On the microblogging platform, Shami’s remark has become the hot topic.

Akhtar, a former Pakistani pacer, made a controversial statement regarding the Indian pacers in the lead-up to England and Pakistan’s historic match at the MCG. As England thrashed Rohit and company by 10 wickets in the second semi-final, India was unable to claim a wicket, setting up a meeting with Pakistan in the T20 World Cup final at the MCG on Sunday.

England has a complete position, as you can see from the statement above. England’s self-confidence is surging right now. England’s bowlers are Pakistani, while India’s bowlers are from the latter country. Asprega yahan kuch na kuch karke. The walkover in this instance is not present. (The difference is that England are in a strong position and their confidence will soar; England knows Pakistan bowlers are not like India. They will have to work hard to win, they won’t get a walkover.)” Akhtar had stated on his official YouTube channel.
