'You Earn Money by Praising India', Sehwag Trolls Shoaib Akhtar; Akhtar Responds Brutally

Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag, in the past, had taken a dig at Pakistani pacer Shoaib Akhtar, saying he is earning money by praising India. Referring to the old jibe, Shoaib Akhtar took a sharp dig at Sehwag and said through his YouTube channel, “I have more maal (money) than you have baal (hair) on your head. If you are not able to fathom that I have such high followers, then understand it. It has taken me 15 years to become Shoaib Akhtar."

Akhtar made such comments after an old video of Sehwag trolling the ‘Rawalpindi Express’ surfaced online.

In his defence, Akhtar said there has been times when he had been critical of India. "Yes, I have a huge fan following in India, but I criticised them when they did not play well in the first ODI against Australia," he said, adding, “Just tell me one Pakistan Youtuber who does not praise India when their team does well. Ramiz Raja, Shahid Afridi and others all praise the Indian side when they do well. Tell me one thing, isn't it right that the Men in Blue are in fact the number one side in the world, isn't it right that Kohli is the number one batsman in the world.”

It remains to be seen if Sehwag has a counter for Akhtar.
