New Delhi, June 1 Former Pakistan captain Waqar Younis has urged both Shahid Afridi and Gautam Gambhir to calm down and be sensible as the two cricketers from neighbouring countries are at constant loggerheads on social media. Waqar Younis said that the banter between Gautam Gambhir and Shahid Afridi has been going on for 'way too long' and advised the India and Pakistan stars to 'talk it out'. Waqar Younis, a decorated fast bowler and captain, said people are going to love their banter but the two cricketers should act smart. "The banter between Gautam Gambhir and Shahid Afridi has been going on for a while now. I think they both got to be smart, sensible, and calm down. It has been going on for way too long. My advise to them is to maybe catch up somewhere around the world and talk it out if you cannot really calm it down," Waqar said during an interaction on chat series "Q20" on GloFans. "In social media, if you carry on that, people are going to love it and people are enjoying it and that I feel that they both should be sensible and smart." Waqar Younis's comments come after Gautam Gambhir lashed out at Shahid Afridi for his controversial comments on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Kashmir. Shahid Afridi had requested the Pakistan Cricket Board to include a team from Kashmir in the Pakistan.
