Former Pakistani cricketer Waqar Younis tweeted on Saturday night, in which he called the news of Shaheen Afridi’s exit from the 2022 Asian Cup a huge relief to India’s top order. After this tweet, he is now being fiercely trolled by the India team fans.
Shaheen Afridi has been ruled out of the Asian Cup due to not fully recovering from injury. He is the leading bowler of the Pakistani team. In the last T20 World Cup, he played a major role in Pakistan’s victory by taking over Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul in the Indo-Pak match. This time in the Asian Cup, there will be a match between India and Pakistan on August 28. In such a situation, Pakistan fans expected Shaheen’s charismatic bowling like last time. But news of his withdrawal from the Asian Cup on Saturday dealt a serious blow to the Pakistani team’s fans.
Pak fans continuously tweeted after Afridi was out of the team. There was also a tweet on this from former cricketer Pak Waqar Younis. He wrote: ‘Shaheen’s injury is a big relief news for India’s top batsmen. Disappointed not being able to see him at the Asian Cup. Get fit soon Shaheen.
After this tweet from Waqar, he was fiercely trolled by Indian fans. Someone is saying that the Pakistan team is already making excuses for the loss, then someone told Waqar Younis that if his team runs with only one player then his team is a joke.

If a player’s absence makes a team clueless, then that team is a joke. We don’t complain when our players get injured and miss games because we know we have other players waiting to play. That is why we are always above Pakistan in the rankings and also in winning trophies. https://t.co/wQR3MZD5aX

What an irresponsible comment. With only 1 win, do you think the Indian batting order is afraid of pak bowling attack? We hold nothing back and we don’t let any bowler feel that.
We are waiting for that contest again so we can return it. You’re lucky… @waqyounis99 #AsiaCup2022 https://t.co/YmKLrIwwgs— Kapil Tyagi (@Back2Kapil) August 21, 2022
