Sushant Mehta could not hide his excitement over Afghanistan cruising in the chase of a 292-run target against co-hosts Sri Lanka. As usual, he decided to mock Pakistan in his post.
The journalist wrote that Afghanistan was inching closer to qualification, and Pakistan were fearing the worst.

However, Afghanistan choked again and lost the game by two runs.
Sushant Mehta’s post received hilarious responses and netizens trolled him by saying that he jinxes the victories of every side he supported.

Moreover, his support for Nepal against Pakistan in the opening game came back to haunt him as Babar Azam’s side registered a crushing win.
