Irfan Pathan and Shehbaz Sharif
Former India pacer Irfan Pathan gave a befitting reply to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif after India’s 10-wicket loss to England in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022 (Thursday, November 10). Following India’s exit, PM Sharif mocked India in a viral tweet.
He wrote: “So, this Sunday, it’s: 152/0 vs 170/0 #T20WorldCup.” Many Indians did not like PM Sharif’s making fun of India; one of them is Irfan, who replied to the PM: “This is the difference between you and us. We are happy with our happiness and you are happy with others’ problems. That’s why there is no focus on improving one’s own country.”

English opening duo Jos Buttler and Alex Hales’ 170-run stand knocked Rohit Sharma and Co. out of the World Cup. From the very start, the Englishmen played aggressively; against them, the Indian bowlers had no answers.
Buttler scored an unbeaten 80 runs off 49 balls (with nine fours and three sixes), while Hales smacked an unbeaten 86 runs off 47 balls (with four boundaries and seven maximums) to chase down the target comfortably with 24 balls remaining.
