Andrew Flintoff gets schooled by Amitabh Bachchan on Twitter

The English cricketer took a dig at Kohli on Twitter, but instead ended up on the wrong side of Amitabh Bachchan

The cricket world seems to be in awe of Kohli's batting skills as of late, due to his performance during the WT20, but even so, many have been trolling him.

English cricketer Andrew Flintoff took a dig at Kohli when he tweeted "At this rate, Virat Kohli will be as good as Joe Root," referring to the talented English cricketer.

Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan joined the conversation when he quipped, "Root who?"

@flintoff11 @imVkohli @root66 @englandcricket Root who ? जड़ से उखाड़ देंगे Root ko ..!!!

For the unaware, Amitabh Bachchan was speaking of Joe Root and ‘uprooting’ him if India were to face England in the WT20 final.

The cricketer-turned-Twitter troll took a dig at Amitabh Bachchan then asking, "Sorry, who's this?"

Since the cricketer hadn't done his research, Ravindra Jadeja's parody Twitter account hit back with a screen shot of Flintoff's mere 1.8 million followers, compared to Bachchan's staggering 20 million and referenced Bachchan's famous line from his Bollywood movie Shehenshah.
