Former India batsman Yuvraj Singh has blasted Shahid Afridi for his controversial comments on India and PM Narendra Modi. A video emerged on social media where the former Pakistan allrounder could be seen addressing a crowd in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, and talking ill about PM Modi.

Afridi, who has developed a knack of spewing venom against India and PM Modi, was in the illegally occupied territory to provide essential items to the locals in these tough times. But he used the opportunity to tarnish India and PM Modi’s image once again.

“I am in your beautiful village, I am very delighted. I was planning to visit you all from a long time. The world is currently infected by such a big disease,” said Afridi before taking a shot at PM Modi, saying: “But the bigger disease is in Modi’s mind.”

“Modi deployed 7 lakh soldiers in Kashmir, same as the total strength of Pakistani forces,” he added while also saying that Kashmiris from India were also supporting the Pakistani Army.

Unsurprisingly, his comments have caused a huge stir in India. The users on social media not only slammed Afridi but also criticised Harbhajan Singh and Yuvraj Singh for extending help to Shahid Afridi Foundation in its fight coronavirus.

Well, Yuvraj Singh did not take much time in hitting back at Afridi and made it clear that he was disappointed with the comments. Yuvraj Singh took to Twitter to slam the controversial allrounder, writing:

“Really disappointed by @SAfridiOfficial‘s comments on our Hon’b PM @narendramodi ji. As a responsible Indian who has played for the country, I will never accept such words. I made an appeal on your behest for the sake of humanity. But never again. Jai Hind ??”

Earlier, Harbhajan Singh had also slammed the Pakistani, saying that he has severed “whatever little ties,” he had with Afridi.

“This is very upsetting what Shahid Afridi has come up with, talking ill about our country and our Prime Minister. This is just not acceptable,” Harbhajan told India Today.
