Lucknow: Former Indian player Mohammad Kaif has been heavily criticized for disrespecting Ajaz Patel, the architect of New Zealand’s victory, who took 11 wickets in two innings in the Mumbai cricket test against India. In a video posted on X after the Mumbai Test, Kaif disparaged the Kiwis star. Kaif had said that spinners like Ajaz Patel were even in local clubs in India and that India lost the Test because of the incompetence of Indian batsmen and not because of the skill of the Kiwi bowlers.
Ajaz Patel and Glenn Phillips blasted India in the Mumbai Test. Let me be honest, such spinners can be found even in local cricket academies in India. Check out Ajaz Patel’s pitch map, he bowled two short balls and two fullers in the over. There were only two long balls left. Our wickets were lost in these two balls.
And about the part-time spinner, Glenn Phillips, he is a part-time spinner who doesn’t even know how to bowl well. Ajaz Patel, who was not even sure where to bowl the ball, took 22 wickets in Wankhede in Mumbai single-handedly. We bowled two good balls in each direction and lost wickets on those balls. India’s loss in the last Test is embarrassing. Because, Kaif said, New Zealand didn’t have a single batsman to speak of in the Mumbai Test.
What if an Australian said the same thing about you as a batsman during your playing time?
Very disrespectful comments about an international player. https://t.co/wvL21nZMzd

But Kaif’s comments have received widespread criticism from social media. Fans asked how you would feel if an Australian made such a comment about your bat while you were playing. Fans also said that what Kaif said was tantamount to insulting a player. The fans said that even if they could not congratulate them, they sat down without insulting them.
We have a bunch of very egoistic and crazy cricketers. They lack basic respect and common sense which only leads to more bashing for the team. https://t.co/RoQXTn2fcl

If you can’t respect someone then at least don’t insult them
Simple like that

The reason I hate the Indian team and their players is that they never give credit where it is due and make such ignorant statements. https://t.co/nuuWABBK8y

Imagine if the same thing is said by Micheal Vaughan about Ashwin or Jadeja, these people will cry about colonial mentality, racism, entitlement etc. https://t.co/w8QdsC9IQa
