Sarfaraz Ahmed gets trolled for ignoring Pakistan PM Imran Khan\'s advice
Mumbai: Pakistan PM Imran Khan had a few suggestions for the Pakistan team ahead of their much-awaited encounter against India in World Cup 2019.
The 1992 World Cup winnings captain had adviced the team to have an offensive winning strategy.
“Given the intensity of the match, both teams will come under great mental pressure and the power of the mind will decide the outcome of the match today,” Khan said on Twitter.
He also wanted the team to rely only on specialized batsmen and bowlers and had even hinted captain Sarfaraz Ahmed to bat first if the conditions were not damp.
However, the Pakistan skipper opted to bowl instead despite the pitch being dry and the weather being sunny. Moreover, Shadab Khan and Imad Wasim were included in the starting squad ahead of specialist players like Shaheen Afridi and Asif Ali.
Since Sarfaraz completely ignored the advice of PM Imran Khan, he was brutally trolled on Twitter. Here are some of the tweets:
