Former Indian all-rounder has trolled Kevin Pietersen through a social media jibe on Instagram over the latter’s ‘pie chucker’ jibe at Yuvraj Singh in 2008.

Notably, Kevin Pietersen had kicked up a storm when he called Yuvraj a pie chucker after getting out to the left-arm spinner during a Test series in India in 2008. Pietersen went on to say that Yuvraj had bowled ‘left-arm filth’.

Kevin Pietersen Had Called Yuvraj Singh A ‘Pie Chucker’ In 2008

“When the ball is swinging and seaming and you’ve got a guy like Zaheer Khan, who is one of the best bowlers I’ve ever faced, not bowling at you and you’ve got a pie-chucker like Yuvraj Singh bowling at you I really don’t mind. When you get left-arm filth like that it makes you feel really good,” Pietersen had said.

Yuvraj did not hold back as he responded to Pietersen’s remarks, saying he quite liked the name given to him.

“It shows KP hates getting out to me and if a useless bowler is getting him out five times then I would say that is quite useless batting,” Yuvraj had said.
