The Hindu  

The India vs Pakistan match in the Super 12 of the 2022 T20 World Cup saw former England captain Nasser Hussain get involved in an online controversy on Twitter. Nasser was quoted criticising some of the umpiring decisions in the match - something the 54-year-old immediately pointed out as fake, requesting the user to delete the tweet. But following the result, Pakistan fans criticised the umpiring decisions in the game and alleged that the umpires were in favour of India. One such fan tweeted a Hussain quote which said, “The umpires made some weird decision in favour of India today but maybe we should keep quiet and not upset ICC and BCCI.” The tweet got viral and received more than 13 thousand likes and five thousand retweets.
