Bishnoi, Sooryavanshi mock Ayub [Source: Screengrab/Sony Liv, X]Saim Ayub mocked Vaibhav Sooryavanshi after dismissing him in the Asian Games final match, and the Pakistan star eventually got a taste of his own medicine as Sooryavanshi, and Ravi Bishnoi took a dig at him by doing the same gesture (baby-sitting gesture) after India won the Gold medal.Controversy erupted when Ayub dismissed the dangerous Sooryavanshi for just 15 runs, and he seemingly appeared to make a baby-cradle gesture, which was seen as a send-off directed towards the 15-year-old teenager.Sooryavanshi, Bishnoi take revenge by mocking AyubIn a relatively close-fought contest, India defeated Pakistan by 19 runs to win the Gold medal, and during the victory celebration, a young Sooryavanshi and Bishnoi took revenge as they taunted Ayub by performing the “baby-cradle” celebration and returned the favour, which was started by Ayub.The Pakistan player did the action because Sooryavanshi is just 15, and he took a jibe by indirectly stating that he is still a baby.Sunil Gavaskar @virender_swag Look how Vaibhav responded to the baby!

Our performance hasn't been great, but we are doing things for social media. The management should think about this. It's international cricket," Akmal said on the ‘Game Plan’ YouTube show.Saim Ayub produces flop show vs IndiaEverything went downhill for the 24-year-old Pakistan player after his gesture towards Sooryavanshi.
