Shehbaz Sharif's retort to Zimbabwe President's 'Mr Bean' dig. This is what he said

In response to Zimbabwe President's 'Mr Bean' dig at Pakistan for losing to his country in a cricket match, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said they may not have the real Mr Bean, but they have the real cricketing spirit.

Zimbabwe President Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa had taken a jibe at the Pakistan team asking it to 'send the real Mr Bean' when they play the next time.

The dig was referred to Asif Muhammad, Pakistani lookalike of Mr Bean who had visited Zimbabwe in 2016 pretending as the actual Mr Bean, originally played by Rowan Atkinson.

Sharif in a subtle warning hinted that his team has a funny habit of bouncing back.

Pakistan on Thursday suffered a shocking defeat to Zimbabwe in world cup qualifiers. It lost the match by one run, which has now put it on the cusp of an early T20 world cup exit.

Zimbabwe had given them 131-run target but the early collapse of batting order seems to have shredded Pakistan's qualifying hopes.
