When one thinks of former India batsman Mohammad Kaif, a picture of a very athletic cricketer who just meant business comes to mind. One of the finest fielders to have played for India, Kaif was rarely seen in altercation with the opposition players. However, when it comes to social media, Kaif is completely a different personality.

The former India batsman, in his recent tweet, has taken a sly dig at Pakistan after their heavy 7-wicket loss to West Indies at Trent Bridge on Friday. West Indies thoroughly outplayed the Men in Green to start their World Cup on a stunning note.

It took them less than 22 overs to bowl out Pakistan and less than 14 overs to chase down the paltry total of 106. West Indies’ ploy of targeting Pakistan batsmen with short stuff paid rich dividends.  Fast bowler Oshane Thomas took four wickets as Pakistan were bundled out for their second-lowest World Cup total of 105 in just 21.4 overs.

In reply, West Indies cruised to victory in just 13.4 overs, with Chris Gayle top-scoring with 50. He reached his half-century off 33 balls with three sixes and six fours before he was dismissed off the next ball he faced. Highly-rated Nicolas Pooran then smashed Wahab Riaz for a huge six over the square-leg boundary to give his side a stunning start. For Pakistan, the only positive was three wickets for pacer Mohammad Amir who has struggled since his heroics in the final of 2017 Champions Trophy.

Following the match, Kaif have his assessment on the match as he rated the performance of both the teams. In an indirect dig at Pakistan’s ability, Kaif tweeted:

“Just 212 balls in the game and it’s over. West Indies, showing what they are capable of ,and Pakistan too.”
