Shahid vs Irfan out of the field (Photo: PTI)
India vs Pakistan: There has been a wrangling between India and Pakistan on the cricket field on the pretext of Asia Cup. The second dispute is being seen between the former players of the two countries outside the ground. But, the limit was reached when Shahid Afridi challenged Irfan Pathan while sitting in Pakistan’s TV show. The former Pakistani all -rounder, who was defeated by the former fast bowler of India, showed him courage and instigated him for face to face debate. Irfan Pathan also gave a befitting reply to Shahid Afridi’s talk. At the same time, Ashwin’s statement has also come on the dispute between former Indo-Pak players.
I consider him a man who… what did Shahid Afridi say?
First of all, know that Shahid Afridi sat on the TV channel of Pakistan and said about Irfan Pathan? He said that I consider him a man who talks to the front. Talk to face to face. Talk with eyes in the eyes. Whatever you keep saying behind the back. The former Pakistani all -rounder further said that Irfan Pathan will continue to prove that he is the biggest Indian.
Shahid Afridi Accused @Irfanpathan of Telling Lies and Challengeed Him to a face-to-face discussion. Afridi also Claimed Pathan is Attempting to Prove His Loyalty to India While Opposing Pakistan.

Irfan Pathan’s befitting reply
Irfan Pathan has responded through social media to Shahid Afridi’s statement. Without naming Shahid Afridi, he said that you are right- this is more obese about the name of neighboring X cricketer and media Irfan Pathan.
Aap log sahi kehte hain: Ye Padosi X Players Aur Media Irfan Pathan Ke Naam Se Obsessed Hain.

Ashwin also bluntly
Ashwin has also made a statement on this dispute of two former India-Pakistan players. Ashwin has taken a dig at Shahid Afridi without naming and said that his thinking is quite below. He cannot think as much as us. Ashwin said that we do not need to go to his level. If we did this, then our defeat is ours. And this is what they want.
