New Delhi: Irfan Pathan is the latest Indian cricketer to be trolled for posting a photo with his wife wherein his wife Safa Baig is seen showing her face and arms. Fans found the image ‘unislamic’ and mocked Irfan for being a Pathan and still failing to ask his wife cover her face and arms and also for allowing her to wear nail polish.

Irfan posted the photo with his wife on his official Facebook account on Sunday and it read: “This girl is trouble 🙈 #love #wifey.”

Comments ranged from how Irfan should have asked Safa to cover her face as it is his duty to do the same as a Muslim and as a Pathan. Another fan said that while it was good that she was hiding her face, it was also important that Irfan asks her to hide her arms.

Another fan went to the extent of saying that Muslims should not post pictures of girls in their families as they are special.

Irfan married Baig, a model from Jeddah in February and the two were blessed with a baby boy in December. While injuries have hampered his return to international cricket, Irfan did ply his trade in the Indian Premier League for Gujarat Lions.
