5 times Jofra Archer tweeted against the Asian teams and their players
Archer doesn't seem a fan of Indian team and MS Dhoni.
5. Wanted Bangladesh to stick it to India
The India-Bangladesh is a new-age rivalry and it started off in the 2015 World Cup. India had an unbeaten run through the group stages. They won six games in a row to reach the quarter-finals. They beat Pakistan, South Africa, West Indies, UAE, Ireland and Zimbabwe.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh’s spirited performance had knocked England out of the World Cup. That win allowed them to make it to the knockout stage for the first time in their history. Hence, they were high on confidence while India were still favourites.
Just before the game, Archer took to Twitter to showcase on whose side he is. The Barbados-born wanted Bangladesh to give India a real stick and beat them. He backed Bangladesh throughout and wanted India out of the tournament. He tweeted, “I want Bangladesh stick India tonight”. However, India put it past Bangladesh with relative ease (in the end) to reach the semi-final.
