Former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan faced criticism from Pakistani fans on Twitter after India’s heavy defeat in the World Test Championship Final. They reminded him of his previous tweet where he had taunted Pakistan after India’s victory in the 2022 T20 World Cup match. Pakistani fans responded with witty replies after India’s loss to Australia in the WTC final.
Pathan didn’t appreciate the banter from Pakistani fans and tweeted about it, mentioning “padosi” (neighbors) and implying that he was right about them. However, his response seemed hypocritical as he had started the banter initially but now talked about “grace” and sportsmanship when faced with similar comments.
Pathan’s immature reaction reflects the saying, “if you can’t take it, then don’t dish it out.”
