‘Aapki leadership bhi kaafi bispotak hai' - Kevin Pietersen thanks PM Narendra Modi over coronavirus convo

Kevin Pietersen, the former England cricketer, took to Hindi to circulate his awareness message on the coronavirus pandemic. The COVID-19 has taken the entire globe to a lockdown and every other activity has also come to a halt. The sporting fraternity has also been affected to a great extent. A number of tournaments, including domestic and international, have been postponed or shelved.

The start of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has also been postponed from March 29 to April 15. There may also be a chance that the tournament will be played without its foreign players. A few international series have also been postponed. Pietersen used Twitter as a platform to make his fans aware. He asked the people to stay at their homes as a much-needed precautionary measure.

In the meantime, Narendra Modi, the Honourable Prime Minister of India, endorsed Pietersen’s words. He called the Englishman an explosive cricketer and pledged to fight coronavirus together. The PM replied to Pietersen and wrote, “Explosive batsmen who’ve seen teams through crises have something to say to us. We too will come together to fight COVID-19.”

After the Indian PM reverted to him, Pietersen was over the moon. Yet again he used Hindi and reverted to the colossus personality. Pietersen replied to the PM and wrote, “Shukriya Modi ji , aapki leadership bhi kaafi bispotak hai (thank you Mr Modi, your leadership is also very explosive)”
