Twitter reacts to enraged Mushfiqur Rahim threatening to punch teammate for almost sabotaging catch
Known to be a hot-head, Mushfiqur Rahim had a moment heโd like to erase in the Bangabandhu T20 Cup on Monday. After narrowly avoiding collision to take a catch, Rahim lost his cool and was a millisecond away from punching the fielder at short fine leg, before withdrawing in the very last moment.
Rahimโs moment of madness infuriated the cricketing fraternity, who chastised the former Bangladesh skipper on social media for his distasteful actions that made him look like a bully. Apart from blasting Rahim for his actions, the Twitterati also expressed their sympathy for the fielder, who was mortified by the actions of Rahim.
Here is how Twitter reacted to the incident:
Calm down, Rahim. Literally. What a chotu ๐ฏ๐ฅ
