Former Pakistan captain Salman Butt has subtly responded to wicketkeeper-batter Sarfaraz Ahmed after the latter took to Twitter on Wednesday and indirectly reminded him of the past.

Salman was found guilty of spot-fixing during the Lord’s Test in 2010 and was banned from all forms of cricket for five years. Quetta Gladiators captain skipper called him a “fixer who sold Pakistan while being on national duty after Butt criticised Sarfaraz's performances and his aggression on the field.

“Pakistan ko on duty beachne wala fixer jub niyat pe bhashan dega phir to Allah he Hafiz hai (If the one who sold Pakistan on duty is giving lectures on intentions, then only god can protect) .#justsying.” Sarfaraz tweeted.

Meanwhile, Butt didn’t make any direct remarks, he dropped a subtle response, saying he doesn’t intend to ignite the matter further.  

“You’ve come to the wrong shop. You won’t get the stuff you want from this place. There already are a lot of shops here where people keep shouting like bus conductors, so you might as well go there,” Butt said on his YouTube channel as the viewers were demanding to speak up on the tweet Sarfaraz did for him.
