Ravi Shastri Gives Yuvraj Singh A Taste Of His Own Medicine In Hilarious Banter On Twitter

Two months after Yuvraj Singh pulled Ravi Shastri’s legs on Twitter, the India head coach has finally avenged it. A couple of months ago, Ravi Shastri had taken to the social media platform to congratulate Team India on the ninth anniversary of their 2011 World Cup triumph.

While congratulating the players, he had tagged only Virat Kohli and Sachin Tendulkar. Yuvraj Singh was not impressed with the tweet and hilariously told Ravi Shastri that he could have tagged him and MS Dhoni as well. Yuvraj was the Man of the Tournament for his all round display while Dhoni had scored an unbeaten 91 in the final against Sri Lanka.

“Many Congratulations Guys! Something you will cherish all your life. Just like we from the 1983 group #WorldCup2011,” Ravi Shastri had written on Twitter

Yuvraj was quick to reply to the tweet from the current India coach, writing: “Thanks senior ! U can tag me and mahi also we were also part of it (Sic).”

Ravi Shastri gives it back to Yuvraj Singh:

On Thursday, Yuvraj Singh and Ravi Shastri were involved in yet another hilarious banter on Twitter and this time, the roles were reversed. It was Yuvraj Singh who took to Twitter to congratulate Team India on the 37th anniversary of the historic triumph of the 1983 World Cup.

However, the former India batsman did not tag any player from the 1983 squad and Ravi Shastri was quick to point out that Yuvraj had not tagged then India captain Kapil Dev as well as him.

“A moment of national pride, our seniors lifted the 1983 Cricket World Cup on this day ?? ? Congratulations to every member of the 1983 team ???? You set the benchmark for us to achieve the same in 2011! Looking forward to India becoming a world champion in all sports ????,” wrote Yuvraj.

In reply, Ravi Shastri gave Yuvraj a taste of his own medicine by writing: “Thanks, Junior! You can tag me and Kaps also Face with tears of joy –

Yuvraj then concluded the banter by writing: “Hahahahaha senior! You are a legend on and off the field.. Kapil paaji was a different league altogether.”
