Twitter Accounts From Pakistan Call Arshdeep Singh A Khalistani And Edit His Wikipedia Page After He Drops Catch In India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2022 To Malign India, Left Wing Indian Accounts Amplify Propoganda
He wasn’t the only one who lost his cool though with speedster Arshdeep Singh dropping a crucial catch in the 18th over which saw India eventually fail to get past the finishing line at the end of the day. And in the aftermath of the death, scores of accounts emanating from Pakistan including journalists based in the country were seen embarking on a toolkit, one where the same tweets calling Arshdeep Singh a Khalistani were peddled in a bid to besmirch India and tarnish its image.

Utter LIES!
I grew up in India & traveled across its length n breath with family—everywhere us Sikhs were shown special courtesy n respect.
BTW this is what your patron saint was exhorting from stage *1 year before* catastrophic events of 1984. #Khalistani pic.twitter.com/ihqgs7KomM https://t.co/APeXdSz2zE— Puneet Sahani (@puneet_sahani) September 1, 2022
Don't fall for the propaganda of Pakistani gangs and their Indian supporters.
Most accounts who said Khalistani to Arshdeep are from Pakistan. pic.twitter.com/61Scl8dMLn

What happened with Mohammad Shami last year is being done with Arshdeep Singh. Pakistani bots start abusing him as Khalistani, edit Wikipedia page & right on cue, Zubair portrays it as Hindus in India doing it. Now we will see headlines in the west on rising intolerance in India.

ISI Bots after India loses match: Use Arshdeep and launch a Khalistani narrative to divide India.
Ban everything with this terrorist nation!

The propoganda was akin to the one deployed for Shami with left wing accounts quenching their thirst to paint a horrid picture of India on the global stage as opposition leaders and Islamists retweeted tweets from Pakistan to blow the horn of India being intolerant. This comes at a time when Hindus have been knackered in India by Muslims who have embarked on beheading, butchering and murdering them while the same time failing to show any kind of remorse for the actions of their community.
Match referee Andy pycroft had to intervene and clarify the things when Ravi Shashtri made a wrong call
The whole crowd in the Dubai International Stadium was thinking that India actually won the Toss. But it was Ravi Shashtri’s fault who heard it Heads when Babar actually said Tails. Match referee Andy Pycroft was there who intervene and clarify things. Ravi’s blunder made the whole Indian crowd go wild as they thought India won another Toss. In the Asia Cup 2022 Toss has been a major factor as the team winning the Toss has won all the games except the one game between Hong Kong and Pakistan.
Watch: Ravi Shastri making a wrong call during the Toss
It seemed like Shashtri wasn’t able to hear the call properly due to the loud atmosphere of Dubai International Stadium. In the games like India and Pakistan, the notice of the crowd is immense which might have made Shastri hear the call wrong.

Fans bashed Shashtri on social media
Ravi Shastri has always been the source of memes for the memers on social media. He is bantered very much for his drinking habits on the internet. One fan even said “Wrong is wrong unless someone apologized and correct it. Nevertheless, Ravi Shastri should leave this job as he going old now and not able to listen to the calls properly. He doesn’t seem to be fit nowadays“.
One fan said that “Shastri is already drunk”.
There was no stopping for hilarious memes as Ravi Shashtri made the wrong call in the Toss.
Man of the Match should be Ravi Shastri for messing up the TOSS.
