New Delhi: An abusive Pakistani cricket fan got the treatment he deserved from the International Cricket Council (ICC) for his anti-India tweet during the India-Sri Lanka match at the Champions Trophy on Thursday.
The fan took to Twitter to vent out his frustration, and dared the world body "to stop kissing India's *** for 5 minutes. Just 5 minutes." after the ICC's official handle shared a photo of Lankan fielder, who couldn’t save a boundary, with lots of smileys and India's national flags.
