Tuesday was like a treat for the cricket fans as they witnessed two high-voltage encounters. India faced Australia in the first of three-match T20I series whereas, on the other hand, Pakistan hosted the English team in the curtain raiser of the seven-match T20I series at the National Stadium of Karachi.
Both Asian Giants lost their respective matches against England and Australia. Looking at the things other than the action on the field, then there was something else happening on Twitter. It all started when Indian fans slammed back Pakistan actress Seher Shinwari who trolled the Indians after the loss against England.
Seher Shinwari commented on the Tweet posted by star Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya. She wrote in her reply, “Please lose the next match to Pakistan on 23rd October you will learn more from it.”
This comment from the actress didn’t go down well with the Indian cricket fans and they took no time in hitting back at her on Twitter.
Here's the comment from Seher Shinwari:
Please lose next match to Pakistan on 23rd October you will learn more from it 😂
