After India defeated Iran to lift the Kabaddi World Cup for the 8th time, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag tweeted in his trademark style and trolled British journalist Piers Morgan while congratulation India’s Kabaddi team.
The second part of Virender Sewage’s tweet was clearly meant for the British journalist Piers Morgan, who had run in with the Indian batting legend in the past regarding the successes either nations (read national teams) have achieved in the field of sports.

And not to be taken for granted, Piers Morgan soon responded to Virender Sehwag’s Twitter post, saying “Kabaddi’s not really a sport, @virendersehwag – it’s just a load of grown men running around slapping each other.”
