During the world cup, after Virat Kohli’s match-winning knock against Australia, which guided India to the semi-finals, English cricketer Andrew Flintoff took a sly dig at Kohli’s greatness by tweeting, “At this rate @imVkohli will be as good as @root66 one day! Not sure who @englandcricket will meet in the final now !“.

Thereafter, India’s legend Amitabh Bachchan felt this tweet from Andrew Flintoff as disrespect and he replied with a mouth shutting reply. He tweeted, “@flintoff11 @imVkohli @root66 @englandcricket Root who? जड़ से उखाड़ देंगे Root ko ..!!! (who is Joe Root, and India would ‘uproot’ Root).

@flintoff11 @imVkohli @root66 @englandcricket Root who ? जड़ से उखाड़ देंगे Root ko ..!!!
