‘Out of favour’ Pakistan batsman Umar Akmal has never been shy of posting pictures in peculiar poses on social media, however, he might refrain from doing so in the future after being trolled by Indian veteran Virender Sehwag.

The former India opener took to Twitter to post a picture of the 26-year-old with a caption mocking his age as well as his skill with the bat.

This is not the first time that the Indian legend trolled a Pakistani cricketer on Twitter. In April, he also trolled former pacer Shoaib Akhtar on Pakistan hockey team’s loss to India in Sultan Azlan Shah Cup.



However, Sehwag did not get the response he was looking for. Instead of responding with another taunt, Shoaib took the opportunity to be the bigger person.

Let’s wait and see how Umar Akmal responds to the Indian great’s troll.
