West Indian pacer Sheldon Cottrell jokingly said Wasim Jaffer thinks a lot about what to post on social media more than the bowlers do while bowling in the shortest format. Cottrell was with the Punjab Kings team in the IPL 2020, where Jaffer was the batting coach of the franchise. The former India opening batter has over the years earned the reputation of being the king of social media due to his witty and smart replies.
He is always the one to keep wishing the Indian players by using relevant memes or being sarcastic to Michael Vaughan by giving him sassy replies. Jaffer was at it yet again as this time he posted a Tweet regarding the playing XI for India against their match versus Pakistan on Sunday (October 24) at the Dubai International Stadium. While all the experts and critics took the normal method to name their playing XI for India, Jaffer instead posted a collage of players' IPL franchise.
“This is my team for tomorrow. What’s yours? #INDvPAK #T20WorldCup,” Jaffer captioned the post. In another Tweet, Jaffer depicted the mentality of the fans during the toss and said, what will skipper Virat Kohli will do opt to bat or field in Dubai.

This will be the sixth time India and Pakistan will be meeting in the 20-20 World Cup. The former has a clean slate in the showpiece event, winning all their five clashes. Meanwhile, Babar Azam-led Pakistan have played a lot of cricket in UAE and will hope to use that experience to good effect.
