India and Pakistan have always been at war. With Pakistan constantly pushing to claim its right over Kashmir, there has been a huge conflict of interests among the neighbor nations. There have been many funny euphemisms drawn on to Pakistan by many Indians that Pakistan wants everything good that India has.
These euphemisms might sound funny, but in a recent incident, it sounded that this is indeed what the Pakistanis want. The area of concern this time, however, was cricket and not politics. India put up a brilliant show to beat Pakistan by a gigantic margin of 124 in the ICC Champions Trophy in Edgbaston to extend their superiority over their arch-rivals in the ICC tournaments.
Indian captain Virat Kohli produced a masterful knock of 81 to guide India to a mammoth 319 runs in 48 overs in their first match of this year's competition. This knock seems to have excited a Pakistani journalist who made it very clear that she wanted someone like Virat Kohli in her team.
Here Is What She Tweeted:
Pakistani journalist Nazrana Ghaffar took to Twitter to praise the Indian team. She also expressed a desire to trade off the entire Pakistan team for Indian skipper Virat Kohli. She wrote," Indian can take all our team and give us #Kohli for a year. #PakvInd."

How The World Reacted To It:
Nazrana, who is also an activist was trolled brutally by Twitterati for her controversial tweet and why not? With the constant pressure that persists between the two nations who have been on some sort of a cold war ever since Kargil, Indians never leave an opportunity to show Pakistan who the real boss is. Here are the funniest and wittiest reactions to her tweet:

India plays Sri Lanka today in their second match of the ICC Champions Trophy. Beating them will increase India's chances to make it to the Semi-finals of the eight-nation tournament. On paper, the two sides are a total mismatch. While India ticked almost all the boxes in their victory against Pakistan, the Sri Lankans, in their opening fixture, looked as if they have only entered the tournament to add numbers. The winners of the last edition have a formidable batting line-up, which is being backed very well by a potent bowling attack.
