Abhishek Bachchan’s Viral Comeback to Shoaib Akhtar's On-Air Asia Cup Gaffe

'Sir, Don't Think They'll Even Manage That!': The Shoaib Akhtar Gaffe That Made Abhishek Bachchan the Unofficial MVP of Asia Cup 2025

The high-octane Asia Cup final between India and Pakistan was electric, but the most hilarious moment of the tournament happened off the field, courtesy of former Pakistani pacer Shoaib Akhtar and a classic slip of the tongue that quickly became a viral Bollywood-meets-cricket sensation.

The Mix-Up: From Opener to Actor

The whole spectacle began during a pre-final discussion on a cricket talk show. Akhtar, while analyzing Pakistan’s strategy to defeat an unbeaten Indian side, intended to warn his team about India’s dangerous young opener, Abhishek Sharma. Instead, what rolled off the Rawalpindi Express' tongue left his co-panelists and the entire internet in stitches.

"If Pakistan get Abhishek Bachchan out early in a hypothetical situation, then what is going to happen with the middle-order?" Akhtar asked, referring to the Bollywood actor instead of the cricketer.

The unintentional gaffe provided instant comic relief to the intense rivalry and immediately went viral across all social media platforms.

Abhishek Bachchan's Clean-Bowled Response

The best part of the story was the actor’s quick and witty retort, proving that his game is just as sharp off-screen. Known for his sharp sense of humor on X (formerly Twitter), Abhishek Bachchan wasted no time in joining the banter.

Quoting the viral clip, he tweeted:

“Sir, with all due respect… don’t think they’ll even manage that! And I’m not even good at playing cricket.”

The self-deprecating yet savage reply was instantly hailed by fans, who declared the Ghoomer actor had "clean-bowled" the Pakistani team without even stepping onto the pitch.

The Megastar Joins the Troll Fest

The banter reached its glorious climax after India clinched a decisive victory over Pakistan to win the Asia Cup title. Bollywood's own megastar, Amitabh Bachchan, couldn't resist celebrating the win with a playful nod to the viral gaffe, cheekily crediting his son for the triumph.

Trolling the losing side, Big B tweeted in Hindi and English:

"Well played 'Abhishek Bachchan'… Udhar zabaan ladkhadai, aur idhar, bina batting bowling fielding kiye, ladkhada diya dushman ko!! Bolti band!! (Their tongue slipped there, and here, without batting, bowling, or fielding, you made the enemy stumble!! They are speechless!!)"

The Memes That Broke the Internet

The entire exchange-from Akhtar’s slip to the Bachchans' double-whammy of witty replies—triggered a massive meme fest. Netizens created hilarious posts suggesting that Pakistan had wasted time researching the actor instead of the cricketer.

Ultimately, while the actual Asia Cup trophy went to Team India, the title for the tournament's most hilarious and viral moment was unequivocally won by the father-son duo, who proved they can deliver sixes even without a bat.
