Virender Sehwag Trolls Piers Morgan Back For Making Fun Of India's Olympic Celebration And It's EPIC!
British journalist Piers Morgan Morgan had ranted on social media how India were celebrating after winning just 2 medals at the Rio Olympics. Only Sakshi Malik And PV Sindhu had won one bronze and silver respectively. The Nawab of Nazafgarh shot back saying that Indians cherished every success and it was more embarrassing that England have not won a World Cup despite inventing cricket.

Morgan had ranted on social media how India were celebrating after winning just 2 medals at the Rio Olympics, despite being a nation of over 1.2 billion people. Only Sakshi Malik And PV Sindhu had won one bronze and silver respectively.
Country with 1.2 billion people wildly celebrates 2 losing medals. How embarrassing is that? https://t.co/FYSBM7ErAf

1,200,000,000 people and not a single Gold medal at the Olympics?

Come on India, this is shameful.
Put the bunting away & get training.
While this made him the target of several angry Indian fans, Sehwag responded in his typical witty fashion. The Nawab of Nazafgarh shot back saying that Indians cherished every success and it was more embarrassing that England have not won a World Cup despite inventing cricket, and are still playing the tournament!
We cherish every small happiness',

Morgan did have a response referring to Kevin Pietersen's selection in the team, but it hardly took the sting out of Sehwag's words.
Very embarrassing, Legend.

If @KP24 was playing, we'd win the WC.
Just as we won T20 WC & he was Man of Series. https://t.co/50X5YMQSQU
So in future if you mess with India on Twitter, be ready to be hit for a six by Viru. The man no longer has the willow in his hand, but he can still hit hard with his tweets as he did the ball on the field.
