Irfan Pathan and Yusuf Pathan

In a surprising turn of events, former Indian all-rounders Irfan and Yusuf Pathan were involved in a heated altercation during India Champions Vs South Africa Champions match at County Stadium in Northampton.

This unfortunate mix-up happened at the 19th over after Irfan hit the ball in the air toward extra cover which was dropped by Jacques Kallis. However, a horrible mix-up with Yusuf resulted in Irfan getting run out at the other end. 

After the run-out, Irfan was frustrated and vented his anger on his brother Yusuf for not responding to his call for a second run. 

Amidst this unfortunate incident, Irfan has vocally spoken about his love and respect for his elder brother Yusuf and termed him as a pillar of support for him. 

''I happened to get picked for the national side first, between the two of us. When I was away on national duty, he would handle all responsibilities at home. Bhai is sort of person who speaks less, works more,” Irfan told the Telegraph in a recent interview. 

At the End of the match, despite losing the match by 54 runs, India qualified for the Semi-finals as India piped South Africa based on net runrate. 

They will now face Australia Champions on July 12.
