Former Pakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed tweeted a female Pakistani journalist for her comments on the India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2022 clash result on Sunday (August 28), which has sparked controversy on social media. The Babar Azam-led side had to keep an extra fielder inside the 30-yard circle in the last 3 overs against India due to their slow over-rate at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Due to this, the Pakistan journalist made some comments and Sarfaraz replied with a not-so-polite reply to her, which sparked controversy on social media.

The former Pakistan skipper highlighted the fact that Babar's side suffered from the penalty due to cramps of pacers Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah, which they got due to the heat and humidity at the venue resulting in Pakistan having only four fielders outside the 30-yard circle instead of five.

"Pak had the disadvantage after 17th over 5 fielders were inside the circle cuz of slow over rate & 1 of the so-called female journalist on national TV bashing Pakistan team after a fighting match & saying na run karte hai na catch pakarte hai kamal hai bhi," the former Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter tweeted.

The former skipper did not reveal the name of the journalist but his Tweet got some very angry reactions. Clearly, Sarfaraz was not happy that his team was criticized due to the loss after giving a hard fight to India till the end of the match. Notably, India too had four fielders outside the circle in the last 2 overs due to their slow over-rate in the first innings.

Coming to the match, it was Hardik Pandya in the end, who made the difference in the clash as kept his cool until the last ball of the match to finish it off in style for India. Chasing a target of 148, India were challenged quite heavily by the Pakistan bowling attack and until the end the game was 50-50. Pandya was awarded the player of the match trophy for his stellar contribution with the bat and ball.
