After the former Indian opener, Virender Sehwag made the ‘Darji’ comment on Ross Taylor, it seems the recipient of the comment is far from settling things down. New Zealand star cricketer Ross has come back at Sehwag over the comment. Virender Sehwag had called Ross Taylor ‘Darji’ because his surname is Taylor, attributing to the word ‘tailor’. This happened after Ross Taylor, along with Tom Latham, guided the Kiwis to a well-deserved victory at Wankhede by 6 wickets. Earlier in the day, Virat Kohli had won the toss and opted to bat first. India put up a fighting 280 on board, thanks to Virat Kohli’s marvellous 121 in his 200th ODI. But that was not good enough as Tom Latham and Ross Taylor’s record partnership saw them cross the line and secure a handsome 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series.
So here is how the Twitter exchange started:
This is what the initial tweet read, “Well played @RossLTaylor Darji ji . Great effort after handling the pressure of Diwali orders .”

The sporty banter did not stop there as the two legends tried to get the better of each other. Ross replied, “Has your Darji not done a good job this Diwali?”
Has your Darji not done a good job this Diwali _?

It seems both the cricketers are having a friendly banter among themselves which is quite a sporting relief.
