Following Shami's 7-wicket haul in India's World Cup semi-final victory, Delhi Police humorously tweeted to Mumbai Police: "@MumbaiPolice hope you do not book @MdShami11 for tonight's assault." Mumbai Police's X handle replied promptly: "You missed pressing charges of stealing innumerable hearts @DelhiPolice and listing a couple of co-accused too,". Special Commissioner Mumbai Police, Deven Bharti, also joined the conversation and responded, "Not at all @DelhiPolice. It qualifies for protection under "Right of Self-Defence." As India celebrated the redemption victory over New Zealand, Delhi and Mumbai Police's lighthearted Twitter banter, joking about booking Man of the Match Shami won the hearts of the netizens.
