After the duo got involved in a heated exchange, videos and pictures of the same went viral on social media hence fans were expecting to see both players in action once more in the Asia Cup.  Fans on social media went berserk after seeing Naveen-ul-Haq’s Asia Cup exclusion. Here are the reactions:

Naveen up Haq is lucky that he won’t be playing in the Asia Cup. Otherwise he would’ve been smashed all the over park by Virat Kohli if India-Afghanistan face each other. #AsiaCup2023 pic.twitter.com/6pcUfgWADC
