IPL 2016: Harbhajan Singh and Yuvraj Singh troll Parthiv Patel on Twitter
Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Parthiv Patel made his debut for India at the tender age of 17 years in 2002. The baby-faced wicketkeeper played his first Test against England in 2002 and became a permanent member of the Indian Test squad for the next two years or so. The Gujarat cricketer, who played for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2016, was the youngest member of the Indian team back then and one surely remembers the funny comments Steve Waugh made to him in the Australian skipper's last Test in 2004.
Recently, senior Indian cricketers Yuvraj Singh and Harbhajan Singh found a hilarious way to troll Parthiv Patel on social media as they commented on an old picture of the Indian cricket team posted by none other than Anil Kumble. The legendary leg-spinner posted an old picture of the Indian cricket team standing in front of the Huka falls in New Zealand in 2002. Harbhajan, who once used to be Kumble’s spin-bowling partner for India, spotted the wicketkeeper in that picture and started the series of trolling.
First, let’s have a look at what Kumble tweeted

Harbhajan first retweeted the picture saying “lovely pic Anil Bhai” and then started the trolling session in style, calling Parthiv a ‘chuuzzaa’ and ‘nikka’ which mean a ‘little kid’ in Punjabi

The word ‘Nyaana’ also referred to the childlike face of Parthiv Patel, for which he has been trolled in the past too. The conversation became all too funny when the man in question, joined in and added spice to it by calling Yuvraj as ‘chacha’ which means ‘uncle’ in Hindi. Surely, Parthiv was at his wittiest best as he replied
The photograph surely would have clocked back the memories for these cricketers who share a great camaraderie amongst them. Some of the ‘craziest’ dressing room lingos also came to the fore as these three got indulged into a funny conversation on Twitter.
