“Ye us waqt ki baat Hai jab ham patle hua karte the or Humari muche bhi [This is from the time when I used to be thin and had a moustache. Love you Lala @yusuf_pathan,” Irfan tweeted.

Irfan and Yusuf were part of the T20 World Cup 2007 win and they also went on to play many matches for India together. Back in 2009, the Pathan brothers had won an almost lost match against Sri Lanka.

India was 7 down on 115 in 15.1 overs, and they needed 57 runs more in 29 deliveries. Yusuf and Irfan made sure India doesn't lose any more wickets and ended up with 22* off 10 deliveries and 16-ball 33*, respectively. India won the match by 3 wickets.
