Pakistani journalist Sohrab Barkat has gained viral attention on social media for his inflammatory comments about Hindu gods during his review of India's victory in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 final against South Africa.
A video of Barkat's rant surfaced on the internet on Monday, following India's triumph in the T20 World Cup on June 29 in Barbados.
In the clip, Barkat criticizes the Indian team and questions how they won their knockout matches against England and South Africa.
Criticism from Pakistan
A significant portion of Pakistan cricket fans, media, and even former cricketers have cast doubt on India's recent World Cup victory.
Allegations range from accusing the ICC of favouring India with the tournament schedule and Super 8 opponents to former cricketer Inzamam-ul-Haq questioning Arshdeep Singh's reverse swing with a new ball.
This once again highlights how insecure and jealous the Pakistani cricket fraternity is with India.

In the video, he says, "I had even written that Gaumata could not save Indians today. Even if Lord Vishnu had come, he could not have saved India from losing the T20 World Cup final match."
