Sarfaraz Ahmed has lashed out at Geo News anchor Muhammad Junaid for passing a joke on his infamous yawn.

Responding to a video shared by senior sports journalist Faizan Lakhani, Junaid said: “Hahah Sarfaraz is awake after a deep sleep and yawning for a while,” referring to Sarfaraz’s infamous yawn during the ICC Cricket World Cup in 2019. In the video shared by Lakhani, three men can be seen singing “Iftikhar aur Iftikhar mujh ko zara tu aa kar mil.”

“Junaid after seeing Sarfaraz Ahmed hitting four consecutive 6s,” Lakhani had captioned the video.

Sarfaraz replied to Junaid’s tweet saying: “Mere bare me itna mat soucha karo tabiyat kharab jo jaye gee (Don’t think about me that much, you will get unwell).”

Tum jaise logo ke souch nazer aajate hai tum kis tarah souch te ho,” he added.

The former captain of the Pakistan Cricket Team had smashed Islamabad United all-rounder Iftikhar Ahmed for four consecutive sixes in an over. All four sixes from the Quetta Gladiators skipper looked effortless as Sarfaraz didn’t even advance onto his front foot or leave his crease to hit Iftikhar out of the park.

Meanwhile, Sarfaraz had earlier been in the news for his exchange with Mohammad Hafeez , when Hafeez called Mohammad Rizwan the number one wicketkeeper batsman in Pakistan in all formats of the game.
