Irfan Pathan Picks Up Retired XI To Take On Current Team India

Amid the talk about a farewell match for the recently retired Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Suresh Raina, former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan has come up with an interesting idea. After the retirement of the legendary Sachin Tendulkar, many Indian players have retired from the international cricket who didn't receive a proper farewell. ## Irfan Pathan has suggested a 'charity-cum-farewell game' between a team comprising retired Indian cricketers who didn't receive a proper send-off against the current Indian team led by Virat Kohli.## Pathan, who announced his retirement from the cricket earlier this year, has picked up some of India's biggest match-winners who never received a proper send-off. The 35-year old has picked up the following names along with picking himself – Gautam Gambhir (retired in 2018), Virender Sehwag (retired in 2014), Rahul Dravid (retired in 2012), VVS Laxman (retired in 2012), Yuvraj Singh (retired in 2019), MS Dhoni & Suresh Raina (2020), Ajit Agarkar (retired in 2007), Zaheer Khan (retired in 2015), and Pragyan Ojha (retired in 2020). ## He tweeted, "Many people are talking about a farewell game for retired players who didn't get a proper send-off from the game. How about a charity cum farewell game from a team consisting of retired players vs the current Indian team?". ## Many people are talking about a farewell game for retired players who didn't get a proper send-off from the game.

However, a senior BCCI official has said that the board is willing to host a farewell match for the former India captain and the two-time world cup winner MS Dhoni. He said that the board will have a word with Dhoni during the IPL regarding his desire to play a farewell game.## Stay tuned...

In these 15 years, I have come across many such occasions when there is a lot of pressure on me to join social media. Agencies and several brands know that I have let go deals worth crores where there was just one clause that I should be on social media", Kangana said in the video in Hindi.## She further said that "People called me 'chudail' (witch) and said mere pair ulte hain (my feet are twisted). People have taken advantage of the fact that I am not present on social media. But I still did not take to social media as I never felt any distance from my audience".## "I have always felt that if I had to say anything, why should I do so in a rudimentary way? I have said so much through my films on ‘women empowerment’ and nationalism. I would rather use an artistic way to communicate. This has been my view", she added. ## Watch Full Video -## This is for my twitter family 🥰🙏 pic.twitter.com/KGdJPPWrQ1— Kangana Ranaut (@KanganaTeam) August 21, 2020 ## Taking about the reason why she joined Twitter, Kangana said she saw the power of social media when the entire world came together and fought for the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput who died mysteriously on June 14.
