Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag and British journalist Piers Morgan were at it again after Team India lost the final of the ICC Women's World Cup 2017 against England on Sunday.

Electing to bat first, England produced a competitive total of 228 for seven in their 50 overs. The Indian eves rode on half-centuries from opener Punam Raut and Harmanpreet Kaur to almost overhaul the target. However, they s seemed to lose their wits towards the end, losing seven wickets for just 28 runs to be all out for 219 runs in 48.4 overs.

Sehwag, who has been a big supporter of the Indian women's team's performance this campaign, has always been critical of the English men's team's performance in World Cups. After the Indian eves' defeat to the hosts, Morgan couldn't help but poke the former Indian opener on the loss.

"You OK, buddy @virendersehwag? #WWC2017final," Morgan tweeted to Sehwag.

Viru, giving the British journalist a befitting reply, wrote, "Me and all of India prouder even in this loss than you can ever be mate.We fought well &will only get better & stronger.
Enjoy for a change!"

Morgan, then digging old graves, asked Sehwag to pay up Rs 1 million for the one-sided bet that he himself had confirmed during the 2016 Rio Olympics.

Twitterati didn't take kindly to Morgan's humour and gave him a piece of their mind:
