Several cricket fans took to Twitter to wish the "Master Blaster" on his 49th birthday. As a matter of fact, several cricketers also wished Tendulkar on the micro-blogging website. Not many cricketers have an aura like Tendulkar. However, a certain group of fans decided to troll the legend on his special day as well.

It was England's Barmy Army who decided to play with fire on Sunday. It is to be noted that this group of English supporters are famous for their social media shenanigans. While wishing Tendulkar on his 49th birthday, the Barmy army posted an image of the legendary batter walking back after being dismissed. The English players can be seen celebrating in the background.

"Happy Birthday Little Master ๐ŸŽ‚" read Barmy Army's Tweet. This didn't sit well with the fans as they started to troll them back. Many Indian supporters started sharing some of Tendulkar's records. They felt that it was an insult to the legend.

Ironically, Kumar Dharmasena also celebrated his Birthday on Monday. As he was the umpire when England controversially won the 2019 ODI World Final on the basis of boundary count, fans highlighted the same, and asked the Barmy Amry to wish the Sri Lankan umpire as well. Thus, they were brutally trolled.

"How come @TheBarmyArmy didn't wish their Man of the match of 2019 WC final yesterday #barmyarmy" read the Tweet of fan who reacted to Barmy Army's Tweet. This fan also attached a picture of Dharmasena. "@ECB_cricket @englandcricket Maybe a good idea to teach the cultureless @TheBarmyArmy some manners & respect for legends (or better rename these shameless creatures "The BARKING army")" read another fan's Tweet.

Here are some of the Tweets that trolled England's Barmy Army for mocking Sachin Tendulkar on his Birthday:
