Wasim Jaffer gives savage reply to troll who made fun of his short Test career

Former Indian opener Wasim Jaffer has been entertaining his fans on social media for the last few months with his out of the box messages and hilarious tweets especially during the recently-concluded four-match Test series against Australia. While most of the fans admired him for having a great sense of humour, there was one fan who tried to pull his leg. Nonetheless, Jaffer handled the situation really well.

'I might have played just..': Wasim Jaffer

A netizen asked the former Mumbai skipper whether he had any idea how many Test matches he has played for India and when it came to the veteran cricketer's notice, instead of trolling that person, he replied in such a manner that he ended up winning everyone's hearts. 

The 42-year-old wrote that he might have played just 31 Test matches, but when he sees the Indian team play, he feels as if he is playing with them and according to the ex- IndianTest specialist, he was sure that more than a billion people have the same feeling as well.

Meanwhile, there were a lot of fans who came out in support of the multiple-time Ranji Trophy winner. Here are some of the reactions.
