A few days ago a cricket website ESPN Cricinfo posted a picture on Twitter asking about the competition between batsmen and bowlers. In this picture, players like Shane Warne in front of Virat Kohli, Bumrah in front of Anwar, Rashid Khan in front of Sachin, and Shoaib Akhtar in front of Steve Smith.

Commenting on this picture, Akhtar wrote that he still has the ability to dismiss Steve Smith on the fourth ball after three sharp bouncers. After which the ICC badly trolled Akhtar with a picture of basketball player Michael Jordan. But on this before sharing the video Shoiab Akhtar lashed out on ICC. He said,

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