The debate was ignited when current South Africa spinner Tabraiz Shamsi defended India's choice, posting: 'Why is there such a big deal being made about the Indians choosing not to accept the offer to end the game in a draw immediately? … They got their 100s, which they worked hard for. Game over.' Steyn countered strongly: 'Shamo this onion has many layers... Once [a draw] was accomplished...a handshake was offered, that's the gentlemanly thing to do right? … Now say no, we'd prefer some free milestones... although within the rules, just seems a little, well, odd.' India stay alive, England frustrated after draw; handshake drama at Old Trafford and more Shamsi doubled down: 'Just because the option for the draw was given it doesn't mean the other team has to take it.

Haha.' A fan jumped in, pointing out Steyn's past support for Wiaan Mulder, who once declared on 367* when just 33 runs away from a rare 400 in a Test against Zimbabwe. 'Is this you? Mulder's 400 wouldn't have hurt SA even though Zim hadn't batted even once at that point but Indians batting 15 min extra in a drawn Test is problem," the fan wrote, accusing Steyn of double standards. But Steyn hit back: 'Firstly, Mulder didn't go for the personal milestone… Secondly, if he did, it would have happened while all RESULTS were still possible… unlike this case where the GAME was effectively over and play only continued for some personal gain.' The final Test of the series begins July 31, and it's clear that the tension isn't just between bat and ball, it's between principles and perspectives too.

Dale Steyn, whose deliveries sent chills down the spines of the best batters in the world, has found himself in a unique outrage online. The beloved South African pacer is facing the wrath of irked Indian fans who think that Steyn, on a rare occasion, may have missed the mark while delivering his take on India's decision to continue batting in the last hour of the fourth Test against England. For the unversed, India rejected the early draw 'handshake" offered by Ben Stokes and co., which Indian batters Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar, both inching towards their respective Test centuries, politely declined.

Dale Steyn Replies To 'Licking Boots' Dig Over Verdict On Ben Stokes-Ravndra Jadeja 4th Test Row
The Manchester Test between India and England concluded in a draw, but not a drab one by any means. Despite the fact that a victorious team couldn't be crowned on Sunday, the contest gave fans, former cricketers and pundits a lot to talk about. The most debatable topic of the match was what transpired between England captain Ben Stokes and India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja when an early draw proposal came from the former. The world of social media is still divided on whether Stokes was right to offer an early conclusion of the match, and if Jadeja should've taken it, without thinking about the personal milestones at stake. The incident has since triggered many debates on social media. A famous one broke between former South Africa pacer Dale Steyn and current spinner Tabraiz Shamsi "Why is there such a big deal being made about the Indians choosing not to accept the offer to end the game in a draw immediately? The offer was made. The offer was rejected, and they were fully entitled to make their choice. They got their 100s, which they worked hard for. Game over," Shamsi wrote on X. The post invited a strong counter from Steyn, a legend of the game, as he highlighted that there was no point in continuing batting since the objective of the match (a draw) was achieved. "Shamo this onion has many layers to it, and each one will make someone cry. The only issue I see here is the one thing people aren't realizing, the batters weren't playing for 100s, they were batting for a DRAW. That was the goal. Draw the game. Once that was accomplished, and a result was out of the question a handshake was offered, that's the gentlemanly thing to do right? It's not then the time to realize they safe and now say no we'd prefer some free milestones... although within the rules, just seems a little, well, odd. That said, they did bat well, and maybe with the last hour approaching they should have been more aggressive in reaching those milestones, at least then, we could all agree, no team tried to out do the other in this weird situation," Steyn replied Shamo this onion has many layers to it, and each one will make someone cry. The only issue I see here is the one thing people aren't realizing, the batters weren't playing for 100s, they were batting for a DRAW. That was the goal. Draw the game. Once that was accomplished, and a… — Dale Steyn (@DaleSteyn62) July 28, 2025 The South African spinner, however, wasn't content and explained the logic behind his stance further. "Thats true ledge but I just think both sides have a right to make their own decision. Just because the option for the draw was given it doesn't mean the other team has to take it. If you wana call the shots about how long I can bat ...get me out! Atleast that's how I see it," he wrote in the second tweet. "Well I don't think any one individual calls the shots for how long someone can bat, it's just the rule that teams can shake with a hour left. "The game was Eng going for a win, India going for a draw, time says it's pointless to play on, neither TEAM will win/lose so handshakes and walk off. That final hour isn't reserved for personal goals. As they say, there's no I in team... "That said, if it were you and me batting on 90 each, it would take a tank to pull us off that field! Haha," Steyn responded. Well I don't think any one individual calls the shots for how long someone can bat, it's just the rule that teams can shake with a hour left. The game was Eng going for a win, India going for a draw, time says it's pointless to play on, neither TEAM will win/lose so handshakes… — Dale Steyn (@DaleSteyn62) July 28, 2025 One of the fans also called Steyn's tweet an act of 'licking English boots'. But, the South Africa great gave a strong response. Couldn't give a shit about them, just my opinion. — Dale Steyn (@DaleSteyn62) July 28, 2025 The 5th and final Test between India and England will begin on July 31.

Dale Steyn slams Washington Sundar - Ravindra Jadeja for chasing ‘free milestones', backs Ben Stokes in handshake row
A new-look Team India fought their way through the last two days of the Manchester Test to secure a draw and keep the five-match series alive going into the Oval. While there was plenty of talk about the grit and determination shown by the Indian batters, a fresh controversy emerged in the final hour of play on Day 5 when English skipper Ben Stokes offered to end the game with a handshake, only for the Indian batters to refuse as they were closing in on their respective centuries. After Stokes' offer was turned down, the English captain tried to persuade Ravindra Jadeja by asking if he really wanted to score a century against the likes of Harry Brook and Ben Duckett. Zak Crawley also jumped into the exchange, urging Jadeja to shake hands with Stokes and leave the field. While much of the cricketing fraternity—including former England captains Alastair Cook and Nasser Hussain—backed India's decision to keep batting, others criticised the move as going against the 'spirit of the game'. Former South Africa pacer Dale Steyn has now weighed in on the debate, siding with the English camp and accusing Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja of chasing 'free milestones.' He said their decision to continue batting was not the most gentlemanly thing to do. Steyn was replying to a post by Proteas spinner Tabraiz Shamsi, who wrote on X (formerly Twitter): "Why is there such a big deal being made about the Indians choosing not to accept the offer to end the game in a draw immediately? The offer was made. The offer was rejected, and they were fully entitled to make their choice. They got their 100s, which they worked hard for. Game over," Steyn replied to that post stating, 'Shamo this onion has many layers to it, and each one will make someone cry. The only issue I see here is the one thing people aren't realizing, the batters weren't playing for 100s, they were batting for a DRAW. That was the goal. Draw the game.
