Cricket World Cup's official handle on Tuesday posted two pictures on Twitter in which they compared Sri Lanka's skipper Dimuth Karunaratne to Bollywood actor Vicky Kausal.
"While we are at it...How much does Sri Lanka captain #DimuthKarunaratne look like @vickykaushal09," Cricket World Cup tweeted.
However, many fans did not seem pleased with Kaushal's comparison to Karunaratne. The audience on Twitter expressed their dissent.
"Get your eyes checked from a tailor mate," one Twitter user wrote.
"Only you. No one can see any resemblance," wrote another Twitter user.
The Cricket World Cup did not stop its antics with this, as they earlier compared Sri Lanka's bowler Isuru Udana to France's footballer Oliver Giroud.
"Is it just us or do you notice the resemblance? #IsuruUdana #OlivierGiroud #SLvWI | #LionsRoar | #CWC19
