"You've come to wrong shop. You won't get stuff you want from this place. re already are a lot of shops here where people keep shouting like bus conductors, so you might as well go re," said Butt at end of a video on his YouTube channel.

Butt had earlier pointed out that Sarfaraz's performance in PSL this year haven't been up to mark and that he already has become a second-choice keeper with national team. "He (Sarfaraz) is t doing any favour for himself. He is only creating difficulties for himself, and I’m sure he won’t have any answer for that today," Butt had said. "He needs to concentrate on himself; he needs to look after his own performance, as he has been travelling with Pakistan team as a second-choice wicketkeeper in past 1.5 years. He needs to look after his own performance and t interfere with ors," he said.

Sarfaraz Ahmed took to Twitter and wrote, "Pakistan ko on duty bechne wala fixer jub niyat pe bhashan dega phir to Allah he Hafiz hai (Those who sold Pakistan while 'on duty' should be last person to judge intention of ors)," without mentioning anyone but circumstances under which tweet surfaced and context of whom it was directed at, was clear.
