Former England skipper Kevin Pietersen, who is very active on social media, made a big prediction that England’s off-spinner Moeen Ali will play an important role with the ball for his side in the second innings against the Indian cricket team at Headingley, Leeds.
On Thursday, Kevin Pietersen took to his Twitter and predicted that Virat Kohli and co. would lose the third Test, with Moeen Ali picking six wickets on the final day of the ongoing Test match. He wrote:
“Moeen will get 6 wickets on Sunday. Series 1-1.”

The tweet soon went viral and was welcomed with mixed reactions from the fans. However, the Tweet that stole all the attention came from former Indian Cricketer Wasim Jaffer, who came up with a hilarious reaction to the KP’s prediction.
Wasim Jaffer, who is known for his hilarious sense of humor, came up with a witty response to KP’s Tweet. In his Tweet, Jaffer came up with used pictures of a popular character from the Hindi sitcom, ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’, Jethalal, who looks really confused while figuring out something. Sharing the collage of images, Jaffer wrote:
“Trying to work out how India will be batting on Sunday #ENGvIND”

Talking about the ongoing second Test match at the Headingley Cricket Stadium, Leeds, the England cricket team has been dominating over Team India from the word go. On an opening day, the Indian batsmen had a horrible day at work as they were all bundled within 41 overs.
England’s pacers James Anderson, Sam Curran, Ollie Robin, and Overton kept the Indian batsmen on their toes and restricted their scoreboard to 78 runs, which is one of the lowest-scoring totals.
Later, England continued with their stunning form as the England openers Burns and Hameed formed a brilliant partnership and stitched a 135-run partnership for the first wicket to bring England on the driver’s seat. Currently, England is far ahead of India in the ongoing Test match with a lead of 201 runs.
