Shashi Tharoor’s Tweet Describing Bhel Puri In His Style Makes Twitter Go WTF

The Indian politician Shashi Tharoor is one of the most popular politicians of India and it won’t be hyperbole to say that his impeccable English skills have played an important role in making him famous. Shashi Tharoor, the Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram, is also pretty active on social media networks and he has a pretty loyal fanbase; in fact you may be surprised to know that some online users follow him for the purpose of improving their vocabulary skills.

Recently, the Congress MP took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and made a post in which he gave the recipe of making the popular Indian roadside snack bhel puri. However, what made the difference is the style of writing as some really difficult words were used to explain the process of making bhel puri.

This is the recipe of bhel puri as tweeted by Shashi Tharoor:

“Exotic crispy puffed wild rice from the Western Ghats rainforest, drizzled with an aromatic salsa-verde of Rajasthani desert cilantro & the chef’s secret micro-greens sourced from our exclusive greenhouses in the Nilgiris, bathed in a luscious salsa-rosso of Ras Al-Khaimah dates & exceedingly rare Assamese Bhoot Jolokia chillies known for fruiting once in twelve years, seasoned with a sauce of sweet Kerala beach-sand soil-grown tamarind & Malabar organic raw sugar; tossed in a bronze vessel with macedoines of Gujarati winter shallots & Vidarbha heritage potatoes and riotously festooned with a cacophony of Hyderabadi chickpea-flavoured crunchies ‘bugea’ & ‘papdy’ cooked ‘a la Marwaraise.”

While Shashi Tharoor captioned the image with, “As received on @WhatsApp. Good for weekend consumption!” with laughing emoji, at the end of the post, it can be read, “Commonly known as bhel puri, Got this recipe from Dr. Shashi Tharoor”.

Here is the tweet made by Shashi Tharoor:

Soon, Twitterati started reacting on Shashi Tharoor’s post; while some suggested that a dictionary should also be added in the ingredients, several others said that the price of bhel puri will increase multiple times after such a description.

Mickey Arthur Wants Sri Lankan Cricketers To Stay Away From Social Media For This Reason

The 3-match ODI series between India and Sri Lanka ended with the visitors winning the series by 2-1 as the first two matches of the series were won by India but the hosts saved some respect by attaining victory the third and the final ODI of the series.

In the first ODI, Indians overpowered Sri Lanka in all the departments and in the second match, the Sri Lankans had an upper hand for majority of the game but the Indians emerged as the winner because of great fighting knock by lower order batsmen Deepak Chahar and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

After the defeat in the second ODI, the head coach of the Sri Lankan team Mickey Arthur seemed to be pretty annoyed and he was also seen having a heated argument with the Sri Lankan skipper Dasun Shanka.

Many cricket lovers and some former Sri Lankan cricketers slammed Mickey Arthur for such behaviour as this could have happened in dressing room as well behind the closed doors.

Though Sri Lanka won the final match of the series, Mickey Arthur was still pretty upset with the series loss and he asked his players to keep distance from the social media networks. As per him, there are many idiots out there who are of the opinion that they know everything but in reality they know nothing.

A Sri Lankan journalist shared this information on Twitter as he tweeted, “Mickey Arthur urges his players to stay away from social media. Pretty strong words. ‘There are some idiots out there who think they know everything. But they know nothing.’”

As far as the third ODI is concerned, India won the toss and decided to bat first. However, the Indians managed to score only 225/10 in the rain affected match. The Sri Lankans were given the target of 227 runs according to the Duckworth Lewis method which they achieved in 39 overs with 3 wickets in hand and 48 balls remaining.

Avishka Fernando (76) and Bhanuka Rajapaksa (65) played important roles in the victory of Sri Lanka; however some time ago, they both were out of the team due to fitness issues and the same Sri Lankan journalist shared what Mickey Arthur said about these two players and the heated debate which he had with the Sri Lankan skipper on the field.

His tweet read, “Mickey Arthur on his fitness regime. ‘Bhanuka and Avishka are two guys who have borne the brunt of our fitness scheme and missed out on tours. Couldn’t have been happier to see them come good. The differences I had with Bhanuka was for his own good.”

India and Sri Lanka will now play 3-match T20I series starting today and this series is pretty important for the players as they may secure their berth in the world cup squad with their superb performances.

Barmy Army Takes A Dig At Virat Kohli, Wasim Jaffer Gives Mouth-Shutting Reply With GOW Meme

The Indian cricket team led by Virat Kohli is presently in England as they will be playing a 5-match test series over there starting August 4 and there is no doubt that this is going to be a tough contest as both the teams are pretty strong and England will certainly use the home advantage to the maximum.

The England cricket team has a loyal fan base, in fact there is a group of the English fans which is known as Barmy Army and it travels with the English team in order to cheer them and provide support to them. Barmy Army is also known for its tactics of playing mind games by taking jibes at the opponents on the social media networks. In fact if you remember, they wished the former Indian skipper MS Dhoni on his birthday in a very unpleasant manner by reminding about the match which India lost to England in the ICC World Cup 2019.

This time Barmy Army has tried to troll the Indian skipper Virat Kohli by posting a pic of him in which he is seen practicing archery while the former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer is standing beside him.

Barmy Army captioned the photo, “BREAKING NEWS Virat is out of the upcoming Test Series as he’s in Tokyo preparing for the Archery. More to follow. #Tokyo2020”

The tweet was soon noticed by Wasim Jaffer who has a reputation of making funny and satirical tweets as well as giving it back to trolls in the most befitting manner and he gave quite a good reply to Barmy Army too.

Wasim used the photo of Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui from his movie “Gangs of Wasseypur – Part 2” with the punch line – “Iske pass jo ganja hai woh humko chahiye” (I want the weed that he has).

Wasim Jaffer trolled Barmy Army with his caption too as he wrote, “Barmy Army or Bar mein Army?” (Barmy Army or Army in Bar?) with laughing emoji.

Meanwhile, few Indian cricketers including Shubman Gill, Avesh Khan and Washington Sundar have suffered injuries in England during the warm-up matches because of which Suryakumar Yadav and Prithvi Shaw who are in Sri Lanka presently will be joining the senior team in England soon. The selectors also discussed about Jayant Yadav but his name was dropped due to the change in the quarantine rules while SKY and Prithvi will be getting transferred from one bubble to another.

On the other hand, the young Indian team led by Shikhar Dhawan will be playing their first T20I of the 3-match series against Sri Lanka today after winning the ODI series by 2-1.
