Shoaib Akhtar has not seemed to like the joke that ICC made on him. Recently, ESPNCricinfo.com had shared a tweet with some fantasy matchups.

The site had asked the fans on Twitter to pick their best contest to watch by giving them the option of 20 cricketers, with half of them being active players and another half from the past era. It included one where Shoaib Akhtar was matched up against Steve Smith.

“Three hurting bouncers and...” – Shoaib Akhtar shares his plan to dismiss Steve Smith

The 44-year-old Akhtar replied to the post, claiming that he still has the capability to dismiss Smith in a duel. "Even today, 3 hurting bouncers and i can dismiss @stevesmith49  on the 4th ball. Lol," he had tweeted.

However, his response became kind of a joke and even the ICC used a Michael Jordan meme to take a dig at the former Pakistani pacer. However, this seemed to have not gone down well with the Rawalpindi Express.

“A symbolic tweet, how ICC has thrown neutrality out of the window. Basically this is how the state of affairs are run there :),” Akhtar tweeted.
