Ind vs Pak Asia Cup 2025 Final: ‘Don’t Think They’ll Even Manage That', Abhishek Bachchan’s Sly Dig At Pakistan Team After Shoaib Akhtar's Goof-Up

Former Pakistani cricketer Shoiab Akhtar, during the cricket talk show, Game On Hai, was speaking about Pakistan’s chances in the upcoming Asia Cup final against India. He said, “If Pakistan gets Abhishek Bachchan out early on in a hypothetical situation, then what is going to happen with the middle-order? Their middle-order hasn’t performed well.”

Well, by mistake, he mentioned Abhishek Bachchan's name instead of Abhishek Sharma. This became viral and made it to the headlines, and grabbed Bachchan's attention. We all know that the actor has a great sense of humour, so he took a sly dig at Pakistan's cricket team.

Replying to a news portal's tweet, Junior Bachchan wrote, "Sir, with all due respect… don’t think they’ll even manage that! And I’m not even good at playing cricket."
