After PTI Chairman Imran Khan accidentally thanked his assistant Babar Awan for Pakistan’s T20 World Cup victory over New Zealand, which saw the Men in Green advance to the tournament’s final, Twitterati had a field day.Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan, Pakistan’s hitherto ineffective opening pair, decided to turn things around against New Zealand in the T20 World Cup semifinal on Thursday. They combined for a century stand to advance the 2009 champions to the championship game.
However, Khan erroneously tweeted: “Congratulations Babar Awan and the team for a terrific win,” rather than congratulating captain Babar.He quickly realised this, though, and removed the tweet.Since he has a large fan base, people noticed the error and took screenshots before it was removed.
