Pakistan journalist got trolled for lavishing praise for India’s off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin after the spinner bagged four wickets on Day 1 in the first Test at Birmingham to reduce hosts to 285/9.
Zainab took to her Twitter account and made a comment. Her tweet was captioned as, “Ashwin has bowled beautifully so far at the right pace, might be a long day for him considering the bounce on day one #ENGvIND.”

It was a good day for India after England won the toss and opted to bat first. England skipper Joe Root scored 80 and was the highest scorer for the hosts.
But the way Zainab got bashed on Twitter for her remark on Ashwin was upsetting.
Here are the tweets from Pakistan fans:
He is not a right bowler zanib
