Microsoft has delivered a personal riposte to a Glasgow tweeter who pointed out that its recent ad campaign mentioning cricket was out of place in the city’s East End.

The original bus stop poster showed Microsoft’s mobile voice-activated assistant, Cortana, announcing a reminder about playing cricket at the weekend. One local commented on the lack of popularity of the sport in Glasgow’s East End by tweeting a photo of the ad with the caption: “Said nobody in the east End of Glasgow ever.”
