Faux pas or goof-ups are very common these days and so not surprisingly they are not more much attention nowadays.  However, the recent goof-up by a leading magazine in which a cricketer is getting all the limelight on Twitter for a Best Actor award has grabbed everyone’s attention.

It all started when the magazine posted a tweet to congratulate Irrfan Khan but ended up tagging cricketer Irfan Pathan instead as it tweeted:

“It was definitely well deserved, @IrfanPathan”.

Here is a picture of the tweet:

The mistake was soon hilariously pointed out by none other than Irfan Pathan himself as the discarded India allrounder wrote a funny reply, tweeting:

 “Thank u n sorry I couldn’t make it but u can send the award to me at my home ;);)”

Meanwhile, coming to the allrounder’s cricketing career, it has been going downhill for quite some time now. The ongoing season has been a forgettable one for him. The 33-year old, who last represented India in 2012, was named Baroda’s captain and mentor before the start of the Ranji season. However, he was stripped of the captaincy and got dropped from the side after just two games. Pathan wasn’t selected for the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 tournament as well.

Recent reports are also suggesting that Pathan has sought a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from Baroda to play for another team after being snubbed and dropped by the team he had represented for the last 17 years.
