Amitabh Bachchan Gets Schooled On Twitter About Wide Balls After His Tweet On MI Game

You can’t talk back to Amitabh Bachchan. Nobody can. Unless the topic is cricket, then even the youngest kid around the block can talk to Big B as an equal. Cricket has that effect on our country. Everyone’s an expert on it, and even Big B will not be spared for a wrong call on a wide ball!

During the latest match between Mumbai Indians (MI) and the Rising Pune Supergiant, Pune clinched victory in the dying minutes of the game. Pune bowled economically in the last leg of the game and won by 3 runs in the end.

Like any Indian cricket fanatic, Amitabh Bachchan took to Twitter to point out an error by the umpire in the match, where he did not call a wide ball wide in the last over.

And like always, he attached his own picture to the tweet and it had no relation to the tweet or its topic whatsoever.

If there’s anyone in India whose opinion about cricket is as important as Big B it’s friggin EVERYONE.

 

And that’s how they started schooling Amitabh Bachchan about that wide ball, his superstar status be damned! We are all cricket fans over here!

1. Woah, that’s one way to put the point across.

 

2. Ahem.

 

3. A politically correct way to put it across.

 

4. A Puneri for sure.

 

5. A life lesson for Big B?

 

6. This is a good explanation why it was not a wide ball.

 

7. True.

 

8. Maybe.

 

9. A fan who is trying really hard to sound polite.

 

10. Another valid argument.

 

11. Whew.

As they say, cricket is a great leveller in India.

In front of a cricket match, every Indian is equal.
