Shane Warne's Yasir Shah-Kuldeep Yadav comparison angers Pakistani fans on Twitter

'Yasir shah better than all indian bowlers. Plz dont compare,' wrote one Twitter user from Pakistan.

Mumbai: Australia’s legendary spinner Shane Warne once again made the headlines, this time, with his tweet on India spinner Kuldeep Yadav. While Indian fans must be delighted with Warne's tweet, it has angered cricket fans in Pakistan.

Warne praised the Indian chinaman bowler for his splendid bowling effort against Australia. Kuldeep foxed the Aussies with his brilliant display of bowling and was the pick of the Indian bowlers in the series, with 7 scalps to his name. The Australian batsmen found it difficult to pick Kuldeep.

The Indian youngster also scalped a hat-trick during the second ODI at the Eden Gardens. With the hat-trick, which saw Kuldeep dismissing Matthew Wade, Ashton Agar and Pat Cummins, Kuldeep became the first Indian spinner and third Indian (overall) after Chetan Sharma and Kapil Dev, to grab a hat-trick in ODIs.

Warne tweeted "Was a pleasure to meet young Kuldeep when I was last in India. I really enjoy watching him bowl and cause confusion, even against Australia #INDvAUS"

The legendary leg spinner’s following tweet, however, did not go down well with Pakistan cricket fans. The 48-year-old said that Kuldeep can even challenge Pakistan's Yasir Shah as the best leg spinner if he continues to bowl patiently.

"If young Kuldeep remains patient when he's bowling in all forms then he could challenge Yasir as the best leg spinner in the world & quickly," Warne tweeted.

Pakistani fans soon came down heavily on Warne for drawing the comparison between the two
