Shoaib Malik Tries To Troll Indian Team, Netizens Shut Him Down

Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Malik's attempt to take a cheeky dig at Indian team on Christmas backfired as netizens gave him a gentle reminder as to who the better side was.

Shoaib Malik took to Twitter to post a photo of himself featuring in Pakistan's victory against India on 25th December in 2012 and wished his followers both 'Merry Christmas' and 'Happy 25th December', also taking a sly dig in the process.

However, he faced the brunt of the netizens, as they provided him with visuals that do not appease any Pakistani cricketer or fan. In the first T20 at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru in 2012, India fell prey to Pakistan's bowling, setting a target of just 134 runs. Pakistan chased down the target with two balls left to spare as Shoaib Malik led the visitors to a win with a knock of 57 runs.

Here's how Twitter reacted:
