Former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar took a jibe at Shoaib Akhtar after India thumped Pakistan by 7 wickets in ICC World Cup 2023. The batting great highlighted the ex-pacer’s tweet and posted a befitting reply.

India dominated Pakistan in every aspect during match 12 of the ICC World Cup 2023. They registered their 8th straight win over the arch-rivals in the 50-over World Cup and it was their third consecutive win in the ongoing tournament and they now top the points table.

Shoaib Akhtar on the eve of the India vs Pakistan game shared a post, targeting the Indian team. The former fast bowler posted a picture of his playing days, in which he was celebrating the wicket of Sachin Tendulkar, who was walking away with his head down. He posted with the caption: “Kal agar asa kuch kerna hai, toh #ThandRakh.”

However, to his disappointment and embarrassment, Pakistan suffered a humiliating loss. They were poor with the bat as they managed just 191 runs and had no answers to the questions put in by Indian bowlers.

With the bat then, India put great pressure on bowlers with captain Rohit Sharma leading the charge with his valiant 86 runs. Shreyas Iyer smashed an unbeaten fifty that took India by 7 wickets. Virat Kohli (16) and Shubman Gill (16) also played crisp strokes but couldn’t carry on. KL Rahul (18*) chipped in as well as India were on the top.

Shoaib Akhtar wasn’t impressed with the way Pakistan bowlers bowled as well. With the way Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli hammered then, he pointed out that the senior Indian batters would’ve felt less pressure while batting in nets. He tweeted:

I am sure Rohit & Virat have more pressure than this batting in nets.
