Former India opener Shikhar Dhawan took to social media to strongly criticise Shahid Afridi for his controversial remarks regarding the Pahalgam terror attack.
Posting on X (formerly Twitter), Dhawan lashed out at the former Pakistan captain, writing: "Kargil mein bhi haraya tha, already itna gire hue ho aur kitna giroge, bewajah comments pass karne se acha hai apne desh ki taraqqi mai dimag lagao Shahid Afridi. Humein hamari Indian Army par bohot garv hai. Bharat Mata Ki Jai! Jai Hind! (We defeated (you) in Kargil too. You have already fallen so much and how much more will you fall. Instead of passing unnecessary comments, it is better to use your mind for the progress of your country, Shahid Afridi. We are very proud of our Indian Army. Bharat Mata ki Jai! Jai Hind!)"
