Former Pakistan furious pacer Shoaib Akhtar gave an awesome reply to former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag which also earns respect for Akhtar from the both nations.
On Tuesday (12th April 2016), Indian hockey team beat Pakistan hockey team by 5-1 in Sultan Azlan Shah Cup 2016. On the other hand, Pakistan has never beat India in the cricket World Cup (both in ODI and T20I) which is the reason India made a chant “Mauka Mauka” specially for Pakistan. However Pakistan is not taking the chant in good way as it looks like a taunt for them.
Now after India’s win against Pakistan in the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup 2016 (hockey), former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag trolled former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Akhtar on the social media. Sehwag posted the hockey match score line picture in his official Twitter account and added on that by tagging the former Pakistan pacer, “Sorry @shoaib100mph bhai hockey mai bhi mauka haath se nikal gaya #IndBeatsPak”.

In reply, Shoaib Akhtar took it lightly by showing a good sportsman spirit. Akhtar replied through his official Twitter account, “Whatever my brother Viru say he’s forgiven..bcoz he has heart of gold and he doesn’t mean bad but he’s funny I’ll give him that…”.

Though Virender Sehwag and Shoaib Akhtar was looked like rival during international cricket, but their current relation is very good. Both the players have shared very good times inside the commentary box as commentators in the recent period. They look like one of the best bonding pair inside the commentary box.
