While many were amused, others found the meme in poor taste. (Source: ICC/Twitter) A tweet by the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) official Twitter handle on Pakistani bowler Hasan Ali has prompted angry reactions online among cricket fans in Pakistan.
The meme takes a dig at Ali’s dismissal during the Test match against South Africa. Captioned, “Your profile picture vs the full picture,” the first image shows the zoomed-in version of the cricketer, while the second focuses on the fallen wicket.

Very shameful of @ICC for treating players with memes like this, specially from the Asian countries.
As if all the English players are supremely talented than their counterparts.
