However, Team India bowler Ravichandran Ashwin recently trolled Warner after the government of India banned 59 Chinese apps, including TikTok.

After the mobile applications got banned, the veteran spinner took to Twitter and hilariously asked Warner "Appo Anwar?" - a very famous dialogue from Rjnikant’s 1995 movie "Baashha".

The English translation of the dialogue is, "So, what’s David Warner going to do now?"
