Twitter Is Upset Over Shahid Afridi’s Gautam Gambhir Joke and Harbhajan Singh’s Laugh on TV

The statement that Shahid Afridi made regarding Gautam Gambhir has not been warmly received by Indian supporters.

In the past, he has also made contentious statements regarding India and Indian cricketers, and it appears that he has no intention of changing his ways, despite the fact that he has received a lot of criticism from people who are passionate about cricket.

Afridi participated in the broadcast of a joint effort between an Indian news channel and a Pakistani news channel that was taking place prior to Sunday’s high-stakes Asia Cup match between India and Pakistan.

Harbhajan Singh, a former spinner for India, was also a participant in the discussion.

During the course of the conversation, Afridi brought up his feud with Gautam Gambhir, a former India opener, that took place on social media. The pair got into a fight during an ODI in 2007, which has since become notorious, and the video of the fight is still widely shared by supporters of both sides.
