Wasim Jaffer says England players too busy deleting old tweets with a hilarious meme

England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has become a subject of severe criticism since they suspended the debutant pacer, Ollie Robinson, following the controversial resurfacing of his old racist and sexist tweets. Robinson was one of the bright stars for England from the first drawn Test against New Zealand but now has been suspended from all international cricket pending investigation.

Since then many England players have reportedly either deleted their old tweets or their accounts or have made their accounts private. Former Indian batsman Wasim Jaffer has taken a dig at ECB and England cricket saying the players are busy deleting old tweets in the middle of a series featuring a mem from the popular Hindi comedy film, 'Hera Pheri'.

While the off-spinner Dom Bess, who has been recalled into the England squad ahead of the second Test has deleted his Twitter account, Robinson has made his all social media accounts private.

The ban imposed by ECB has sparked a huge controversy in the country and the sporting world as the British Prime Minister and culture minister have condemned ECB's decision of suspending and asked them to reconsider their decision keeping in mind that it was done by the player in his teenage and has also apologised.

Former England skipper Michael Vaughan, on the other hand, has said that the punishment by ECB is fair and added that Robinson should and will play against India in the upcoming five-match Test series starting August 4.
