Twitter lashes out at Shahid Afridi for posting daughter's photo with lion

Karachi: Former Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi’s recent tweets on the micro-blogging site Twiiter have led led him to trouble recently.

Afridi, who played his final international match for ICC World XI against West Indies in a charity match in England, signed off his international career after scoring 11 runs and taking one wicket.

Afridi made his Test debut for Pakistan back in 1998 and has since scored 51 fifties and 11 hundreds across the three formats.

The 38-year-old made the headlines once again, after a recent picture of him feeding a young deer on Twitter went viral.

In the picture on the left, ‘Boom Boom’ Afridi can be seen feeding milk to a young deer, whereas his daughter can be seen showing her father’s trademark wicket celebration in the picture on the right, with a lion in the background.

“Great to spend time with loved ones. Best feeling in the world to have my daughter copy my wicket taking celebrations. And yes don't forget to take care of animals, they too deserve our love and care :),” he tweeted on Saturday.

However, this did not go well with Twitterati as shocked fans responded to the Karachi cricketer’s tweet.
