WATCH: Furious Pakistan Cricket Board chief snatches Indian journalist’s phone after defeat to Sri Lanka in Asia Cup

Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ramiz Raja lost his temper at an Indian journalist and snatched his phone as he was asked a question after the defeat of Pakistan by Sri Lanka in the final match of the Asia Cup.

The Indian journalist asked Raja whether he had any message for the Pakistani fans as they were unhappy after the team lost to Sri Lanka.

An angry Raja asked the journalist whether he was an Indian. When the journalist replied in the affirmative, the PCB chief said you must be happy at the defeat of Pakistan and India fans must be happy. However, the journalist said that he was not happy over Pakistan’s loss and was merely asking a question.

A furious Raja then snatched the smartphone from the journalist’s hand but then gave it back to him while walking ahead.

The journalist later took to Twitter and asked why Ramiz snatched his phone, “that’s not right Mr Chairman Taking my phone was not right,” the journalist wrote.
