‘Shehansha’ of Bollywood, Amitabh Bachchan made a goof-up on Twitter while praising Indian Women’s cricket team.

Big B on March 11 took to Twitter and shared a picture of Indian Women’s cricket team with a trophy and congratulated them for the ODI and T20I series win over Australia.

However, the picture Big B shared and the series he was referring was against South Africa and not Australia. The Indian women’s team faced Australia in the first game of the 3-match ODI series on Monday with no T20Is scheduled for the series.
