New Delhi ∙ As the Test series against India is about to start in Nagpur on the 9th, an old video has been ‘stabbed’ by Cricket Australia to the Indian team. The ‘fight’ before the series went viral as fans took to the response given by former Indian player and commentator Akash Chopra in the same coin to the video shared by Australia.
The video was shared by Cricket Australia to mock the Indian cricket team during India’s tour of Australia in the 2020-21 season. In that series, the Indian team was all out for just 36 runs in an innings in the Test match at Adelaide. Cricket Australia shared the video of the clash on Twitter.

‘And what was the score line of the series?’
Anyway, Chopra’s response went viral as fans took it up. Chopra’s answer has already been ‘liked’ by around six thousand people.
