Sarfaraz Ahmed didn't name the journalist or the show she was on.
Pakistan, who managed only 147 batting first after losing the toss, suffered a 5-wicket defeat at the hands of the Indian team as they chased down the target in the last over with Hardik Pandya hitting Mohammad Nawaz for a six to end the game.
Sarfaraz highlighted the cramps that Pakistan pacers Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah suffered because of the heat and humidity which hampered their over-rate and, in the end, resulted in them having only four instead of five boundary riders from the start of the 18th over.
"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.
Sarfaraz didn’t name the journalist or the show he was talking about, but he was clearly unhappy with the criticism of the Pakistani players despite them giving a good fight to the Indian team in a low-scoring encounter.
Notably, India also failed to bowl its overs in time and as a result, had a fielder less outside the inner ring for a slow over-rate in the final two overs of Pakistan's innings.
Sarfaraz’s tweet led to a debate amongst cricket fans on Twitter and here are some viewpoints.
