Tennis star Sania Mirza on Wednesday slammed the \u201ccringeworthy\u201d TV advertisements hyping the much-awaited World Cup match between India and Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
India\u2019s Star TV, on the other hand, has been running an ad where an Indian supporter describes himself as Pakistan\u2019s \u201cabbu\u201d, referring to India\u2019s domination over their rivals in the World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pakistan\u2019s Jazz TV has produced an ad, which features a character who is seen mimicking Indian Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman, captured by the Pakistani military a day after the Balakot airstrike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The advertisement war in run-up to the Sunday\u2019s clash between the arch-rivals, has heated up with TV channels in both the countries putting out despicable ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 33-second ad shows a model in a blue India jersey, sporting Varthaman\u2019s trademark moustache. He is seen repeating Abhinandan\u2019s viral remarks, \u201cI\u2019m sorry, I am not supposed to tell you this\u201d to the questions asked on India\u2019s strategy for the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCringeworthy ads on both sides of the border, seriously guys, you don\u2019t need to \u2018hype up\u2019 or market the match anymore specially with rubbish! it has ENOUGH attention already! It\u2019s only cricket for God sake, and if you think it\u2019s anymore than that then get a grip or get a life !!,\u201d Sania wrote on her Twitter handle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
