On Sunday, the boxer also tweeted that he would take revenge of Pakistan's defeat in the cricket team as he will go on to defeat Indian Neeraj Goyat in their upcoming fight in Saudi Arabia.

"India wholeheartedly thanks Sania Mirza for taking the paki boys & her hubby out for party till 2 AM b4 #INDvPAK match," wrote another fan.
