Team India has had a stellar outing in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, with all the departments showing up and showing out with their temperament and skills. But some former Pakistan players, as salty as they can be, have begun accusing the Indian side of foul play as they have accused the team of ball tampering. As absurd as it may sound, the notion has spread like wildfire. Rohit Sharma had addressed the allegation and put a rest to them. But the former PAK cricketers remain unsettled as they have clapped back at the Indian Cricket Team skipper.

After Rohit Sharma's retort, Inzamam ul Haq claps back! Urges the skipper to not teach the teacher

Rohit Sharma responded to Inzamam ul Haq's absurd assertions by elaborating on the subtleties of reverse-swinging in the sun. However, the argument went back and forth when Inzamam responded to Rohit's remarks, pointing out that all he had done was advise the India captain to refrain from teaching the teacher and ask the umpires to be a little more mindful of what was going on around them.

"We shall definitely use our brains but the first thing is that he (Rohit) admitted that it's happening. So it means what we observed is correct. Secondly, Rohit does not need to tell us how reverse swing works, under how much sun, on what pitch; you don't teach something to someone who actually taught it to the world. Tell him it's not right to say these things.

"I had only given suggestions to the umpires, that keep your eyes open since the ball was moving around in the 15th over, and I still maintain my stance. I would again say to them 'Keep your eyes open'. What's happening? If the umpires too use their brain, it will be better for everyone involved," Inzamam said during an appearance on a Pakistani news channel.
