Iftikhar Ahmed denies false ‘street children’ remark about Indian team

Iftikhar Ahmed of Pakistan dismissed a fake insulting remark against the Indian cricket squad, claiming that a professional cricketer would never make such a remark.

A bogus Iftikhar Ahmed quotation went viral on social media, claiming that he remarked, "Whenever we have a match against India, it feels like we are playing with street children."

As a result, Iftikhar chastised the X user for spreading misleading information and encouraged the social networking site to take strong action against such deceptive personas.

“I’ve been made aware of this statement which I’ve never made. In fact, no professional cricketer will make such a statement. Please stop circulating false news & report this individual for spreading hate. @X @elonmusk please ban this account as people are misusing the blue tick.”
