The Delhi Capitals lost their fourth consecutive match to Mumbai Indians on October 31 during the 2020 Indian Premiere League. The Mumbai Indians now comfortably sit right at the top of the IPL points table.
Post-match, Rishabh Pant and Rohit Sharma were seen having a candid chat. The Twitter handle of Mumbai Indians decided to commemorate the moment and took and picture and tweeted it with the caption, “Still waiting for that six-hitting competition between Pant and Ro!”
While fans quickly flooded the tweet with supportive replies, one reply happened to stick out. That particular one happened to be from none other than Yuvraj Singh.
Yuvraj Singh wrote: “Or competition of fat percentage on there cheeks.”
He quickly posted another tweet on the same thread while tagging Sharma’s wife Ritika, and wrote: “It’s like ro is saying to pant tere gaal jyada Motey hain ya mere?”
Singh has deleted both his tweets since then.
Delhi’s Prep Against RCB
Following Saturday’s big defeat to the Mumbai Indians, DC skipper Shreyas Iyer said they will give their best against the Royal Challengers Bangalore in their final league stage game.
“There are lots of flaws to be pointed out to, but we gotta believe in ourselves and be strong-headed, also be positive. Openers being there, it was important to get a good start, once you get the momentum, you can build on later. I feel 150 or 160 was a good total on such wickets. We’ll have to think about it (changes) and be fearless in our approach,” Shreyas Iyer said at the post-match presentation after DC lost to MI.
“We’ll keep things simple and will not try to think much. It’s going to be a do or die match for both teams (against RCB) depending on how RCB play tonight,” Iyer said.
