After Mohammed Hafeez testing negative left the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) red-faced, the board was at it again and of course for all the wrong reasons.
In a tweet posted by the PCB ahead of the team’s departure for the United Kingdom, the board got the spelling of its own country wrong. Instead of ‘Pakistan’, it read ‘Pakiatan’.
We understand it is a typo and not done on purpose, but Twitterati was quick to spot it and then, as expected, hilarious memes followed. This is not the first time there has been a gaffe on their behalf.
The Twitter handle was quick to remove it, but it was too late as screenshots had been taken and were being used to create memes. Here is how it got trolled:
