Former Australian fast bowler Mitchell Johnson lashed out at a Pakistani cricket fan, when she questioned Johnson's decision to back out from Pakistan Super League (PSL) at the last moment.
It all began when Johnson blocked another cricket fan for criticising his decision to back out from PSL. Disproving Johnson's decision to block his fans, the girl said the cricketer 'does not have the heart to listen about it' and called him unprofessional for leaving PSL before drafts.
First @MitchJohnson398 showed unprofessional stuff by skipping PSL for reason he knew before drafts. Now, he doesn't have heart to listen about it 😳 https://t.co/rg7y2UFwD3

This did not sit well with Johnson and he lashed out at her, saying that it is his life and he has the right to decide for himself. “Unprofessional? My family comes first before any cricket, my life my way! I can and will block people that I wish to. I won’t listen to abuse or someone telling me how I should think or act. Thanks for your concern,” Johnson said, on social media.
