Was Dale Steyn’s Viral Post Aimed at Australian Cricket?

‌Dale Steyn is busy in his commentary stint with the Indian Premier League. He also witnessed the clash between Lucknow Super Giants and Chennai Super Kings yesterday at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. In the game, Akash Singh was the main highlight in the first half, as he dismantled the top order of CSK. 

Following this, Dale Steyn made a tweet regarding the same. He didn't tweet appreciating the bowling performances done by Akash Singh. Instead, he talked about the paper which he bought in the game. Steyn said, “Time to put the papers away. It ain’t trending no more. Actually, to be honest, never really was.”

In the tweet made by Dale Steyn, fans remained confused regarding the paper about which he was talking about. So, some of them even linked it with the infamous sandpaper incident which took place in the Test series between Australia and South Africa, leading to David Warner, Steve Smith, and Cameron Bancroft receiving suspensions. 

Still it remains unclear whether the tweet made by Dale Steyn was truly in context of Akash Singh's paper celebration or not. But it was mainly in context of the same, as Steyn indirectly talked about it. Some fans were able to link it with the sandpaper incident, which will now even made Steyn question his words in the tweet, to ensure that it doesn't bring up the past controversies.
