Well, social media is the platform which can make things viral as it was expected. It all started off with some banter on Twitter between former Australia pacer Mitchell Johnson and New Zealand fast bowler Mitchell McClenaghan. The Mitchells were trolling one another in a very funny exchange of words. It led to Johnson challenging McClenaghan to a bowl-off to see who the fastest left-armer in the world was over 30 plus years of age. Dean Jones crashed their party with an epic burn, replying on the string, "Currently Ashish Nehra".
Suddenly, Nehra became the topic of discussion as Ashish Nehra was selected in the T-20 squads for team India against Australia and when Johnson joked, "His run-up is definitely faster", Indian fans came out in numbers to stand up for the 38-year-old India pacer. In reply to Johnson's comment on Nehra's run-up, one Indian fan can’t stop him to comment "His line and length is much better than others". However, Johnson decided to pull out some stats to prove the twitter wrong. Johnson did try to defuse the situation by saying, "Just so you know, we are just having some banter". But it was already too late for that as Indian fans came in the group to brutally troll the former Aussie pacer.
