Punjab Kings' (PBKS) left-arm spinner Harpreet Brar dismantled the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) batting line-up with his bowling figures of 3/19 on Friday (April 30). He got rid of RCB captain Virat Kohli, along with explosive batsmen AB de Villiers and Glenn Maxwell.

A tweet of Brar is going viral on social media after his match-winning performance. The 25-year-old had responded to a fan who said he looks like Akshay Kumar from the movie Singh is Bling.

But Brar seems to not like the comparison and wrote that he doesn't wear a turban for money. "Paise k liye nhi Turban nhi pehnte hum #isupportfarmers," he wrote supporting the ongoing farmers' protest.

In the replies, a fan tried to troll him by posting the poster of the Hollywood movie 'The Waterboy'. Brar wasn't in the playing eleven of Punjab Kings when the tweet was made. But he got the better of him with his reply. "Have you seen the way the movie ends," he replied.

A few days later, Brar got to play for PBKS and he also ended up getting his first IPL Player-of-the-Match as Punjab won the match by 34 runs over RCB.
