The Iceland Cricket team is not even an associate member of ICC yet, however, they are known for their their hilarious posts on social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
Recently, they took a dig at Pakistan cricket after the latter lost their 15th consecutive Test match in Australia. The Greenshirts suffered an embarrassing 360-run loss after they were bowled out for a meager 89 runs in the second innings.
Set to chase 450, Pakistan’s batting lineup unfolded for a skimpy total in just 30.2 overs on Sunday and thus handed Australia a flying start to the three-match series.
Iceland Cricket took to their official X account and trolled Pakistan team, who have last won a Test match in Australia back in 1995. In a light-hearted manner, they pointed out that 45% of their followers weren’t even born when Pakistan last won a Test in Australia 28 years ago.
“We did some demographic analysis and 45.6% of our followers were not born when Pakistan last won a Test in Australia in 1995. This will go up to 45.8% unless they win the Boxing Day Test,” Iceland Cricket posted.

Meanwhile, Pakistan will have an opportunity to sharpen their claws ahead of the Boxing Day Test as they take on Victoria in the two-day practice match at the Junction Oval, starting Friday.
The two-day practice match will be a timely opportunity for opening batter Marcus Harris to strengthen his case to replace David Warner, who has announced to bid adieu to Test cricket after the ongoing series against Pakistan.
