On Friday, former Indian all-rounder, Yuvraj Singh shared a post on his official Instagram handle, revealing that he will go live on Facebook with Manchester United star striker Marcus Rashford on Saturday. While fans flooded the comments section, former England batsman Kevin Pietersen took this as an opportunity to remind Yuvraj about his favorite Premier League team; Chelsea and said that he has “no interest” in the live session.

Pietersen’s comment read: “No interest mate. A Chelsea player and I’d be all over it”. Yuvraj, continuing the banter with Pietersen, teased Pietersen and said that he will ask Marcus Rashford about the number of times Manchester United have beaten Chelsea.

Replying to Pietersen’s comment, “If you did not have any interest u would not be commenting! Don’t worry will surely talk about how many times we beat Chelsea in the last season ;)”. Both of them often pull each other’s legs on social media.

Last year, Pietersen trolled Yuvraj after Manchester United lost a game to Newcastle. After the loss, the veteran southpaw took to Twitter to let his support for Manchester United known and said “Tough times don’t last! Tough men do!!! @ManUtd.”

Pietersen, who supports Chelsea, was quick to poke fun at Yuvraj and said “No one in Manchester is tough!” Last month, Yuvraj and Pietersen went live on Instagram and the former India all-rounder said that one of his email IDs still has the word ”pie chucker” in it.
