Raina blames Twitter blunder on nephew

[Asim]

Suresh Raina has often been a trending topic on micro blogging site Twitter for his batting blitzkrieg. However on Friday, he and his 'nephew' were trending for a reason he would not have desired. A tweet from his account ridiculed Pakistan cricket team. The tweet sent after Pakistan were beaten by Sri Lanka in the semi-final match of World T20 in Colombo on Thursday said: "Ek do din late gaye ghar !!!! Woh bhi besharam ki tarah Gaye... Bye bye Pakistan!!!! "

The tweet was deleted a little later but the cricketer took one long day to realise his mistake and came up with a clarification. On Friday, Suresh Raina tweeted an explanation that the controversial tweet was actually sent out by his nephew. http://www.hindustantimes.com/sports-news/chunk-ht-ui-worldcupt202012-dontmiss/Howzat-Raina-blames-Twitter-blunder-on-nephew/Article1-940145.aspx

Pakistan didnt play shamelessly, they lost by 16 runs only not to mention they wear beat by the home team who are in superb form

[Lord]

besharam ki tarah gaye?

[kubrickian]

Raina said the right thing and they did play shamelessly. They should have chased 140 easily as its not a big total in a T20. Pak batting is just really pathetic.:finger:

Pakis on the net should grow a pair and not throw a tantrum about a random tweet posted by a cricketer (or his nephew)

besharam ki tarah gaye?

I am quite poor in angreji but never thought "besharam ki tarah Gaye" would be translated as "played shamelessly in the semis"

Very late news buddy.

+1. They have very low tolerance levels. Anyway, its fun to see them get angry over nothing. They got trolled in a big way by Raina. :hysterical:

Raina's nephew is such a Pakistan hater. Won't be surprised if he is Shiv Sena member or Raw agent.

That was way more insensitive. What Raina wrote was just a stupid joke that was blown way out of proportion by thin skinned, intolerant Pak fans.

I mean com'on that too was just one stupid non-sense stuff but taking it towards Kohli's Real Dad was 10x "blown way out of proportion by thin skinned" or when we guys quite often use terms like ABC is baap of that XYZ player, there do you think we actually target their dads?

[Sachinism]

They're more pi$$ed coz it was the guy who told their fans to 'shut up'
