The former was once again put in a position where he was asked to comment on one of Gambhir’s tweet regarding the Pulwama attack. After the attack took place, Gambhir took to Twitter to hint a conversation with Pakistan on the battleground.

It is worth mentioning that Afridi is currently playing the Pakistan Super League for Multan Sultans. The 38-year old was asked about his views on Gambhir’s tweet while he was boarding the bus after one of Sultans’ recent matches.
“Kya ho gaya usko [What has happened to him],” Afridi was quoted as saying about Gambhir. While he gave the impression of being unaware about Gambhir’s tweet, he also chose to not issue a statement about the same. Afridi ended up as ignoring the question and boarded the bus.
Given a tense situations prevailing between both the countries, Afridi perhaps did the right thing by not commenting on it. Being a celebrity, a statement from him could have easily taken in the wrong way by his fans in both the countries.
