Former India allrounder Irfan Pathan has replied to a recent controversy involving a Pakistani fan and former India offspinner Harbhajan Singh. In his reply, Pathan tore apart the Pakistani fan and claimed that they are posting such things to increase their reach on social media.

Recently, a Pakistani fan posted a video on X (formerly Twitter) in which Babar Azam was walking behind the boundary ropes after a match in the ODI World Cup 2023. The fan claimed through his X account that Babar Azam refused to give an interview to Irfan Pathan but there was no Irfan Pathan visible in the video.

"When @IrfanPathan begs to Babar Azam for Interview and he refused 😂🇵🇰💪🏻," the user posted on X.

Harbhajan Singh gives a fitting reply to the user

The former India offspinner Harbhajan Singh gave a fitting reply to the post and blasted the user for defaming Irfan Pathan.

"Where is @IrfanPathan in this video ?? Bolne ki tameez to aap logo ko pehle hi nahi thi . Ab aankho se dikhna bi bandh ho gya kya ? Waise bi agar angreji mai swal pooch liya to pange pad jayenge (You didn't have the etiquettes to speak earlier as well. Now you can't even see through your eyes. Anyways, you will be in trouble if I ask you something in English)," Harbhajan replied to the user on X.

Meanwhile, Irfan Pathan has now joined the conversation as well. While replying to Harbhajan's post, Pathan claimed that these users are just doing such things for a greater reach on social media platforms. He also advised his former teammate to ignore such users.

"Inko jhoot bolke REACH chahiye. Ignore maaro Paaji @harbhajan_singh," Irfan Pathan posted on X while replying to Harbhajan Singh's post.

Irfan Pathan and Harbhajan Singh were one of India's biggest superstars during their time. Both were part of India's team that won the inaugural edition of the T20 World Cup in the year 2007.

Both Irfan Pathan and Harbhajan Singh were recently involved in the World Championship of Legends 2024 tournament, which was played in England last month. Both the legends played key roles in India's title win in the tournament, which they claimed by defeating Pakistan in the final by 5 wickets.
