New Delhi: Days after Sri Lanka defeated Pakistan in the final match of Asia Cup 2022, senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor on Tuesday took a dig at the Pakistani cricket team by sharing a meme that has a reference to the ‘Mughal empire’.

“Shared as received. Bless you, @WhatsApp humorists,” Tharoor tweeted along with a photograph showing a man dressed in Mughal attire, attempting to catch a cricket ball, but the ball slipped out of his hands.

For the unversed, Shadab Khan dropped a catch in the final match on Sunday. Even he collided with Asif Ali while attempting another catch only for the ball to trickle away for a six.
