The Pakistani jersey has been titled as “Thunder” and the official hashtag is “#GreenThunder”. The jerseys have been printed in green and aqua color and the Pakistan cricket team will wear it in the 7-match T20I series against England which they will play before the T20 World Cup 2022.
The India-Pakistan rivalry is famous not just on-the-field but off-the-field as well especially on Twitter and Indian netizens have been trolling their Pakistani counterparts by making fun of their team’s new jersey. Well, the trolling started even before PCB unveiled the official jersey as some footages got leaked online and Indian online users didn’t delay in making fun of them as they compared the design to watermelon.
