Irfan Pathan gives back to a Twitter user for calling him Virat Kohli's 'Chamcha'
Virat Kohli failed to clinch an ICC trophy yet again by losing the WTC Final.
It is a known fact that India suffered a massive defeat in hands of New Zealand in the final contest of the World Test Championship. After yet another loss in a crucial ICC match, fingers have started pointing towards India and team management. Even Virat Kohli is also facing the brunt of not taking the team over the line in a significant fixture.
In the same line, many fans on social media started criticizing Virat Kohli. In fact, one of the Twitter users pointed the finger at India’s former all-rounder Irfan Pathan for praising Kohli without any reason. He framed Pathan as ‘Chamcha’ for unnecessarily lauding the Indian skipper.
The Twitter user added that is Pathan getting any sort of monetary benefit for constantly lauding Kohli? However, the former great was quick to revert and added that why wouldn’t anyone praise ‘the best player in the world.’ Pathan backed the ace batsman by calling him the best player in the world.
Irfan Pathan reverts in style
It has to be noted that many fans believed that the 32-year-old was responsible for scoring big for India and take the team over the line. However, he failed to produce any good in the 2nd innings of the game, especially. None of the batsmen from India could even breach the 50-run mark in the showpiece event. The sheer collapse of the batting order led India in failing to put a massive total. Even after two days got washed out in the marquee event, the Kiwis were able to register a victory on the reserve day.
“First up, a big congratulations to Kane and his team. They’ve shown great consistency and heart, and pull off a result in three days. They put us under pressure throughout the Test and did extremely well to win. It was difficult to get momentum on Day 2, and we did really well with the ball in the first innings. This morning was the difference where their bowlers executed their plans to perfection and didn’t give us scoring opportunities. We were 30-40 short of giving them a good target,” said Kohli post WTC Final’s loss.
