Many netizens criticized India’s cricket players after their 10-wicket loss to Pakistan in a T20 World Cup 2021 Super 12 match on Sunday. On the loss, Mohammed Shami was also affected by the verbal attack.
India skipper Virat Kohli, on the other hand, slammed the online venom directed towards Mohammed Shami, calling it the “most disgusting thing” a human being could do
Virat Kohli, who has referred to online trolls as “spineless,” said he is saddened by the lack of understanding of Mohammed Shami’s passion and that he has no time for such people in his life. The Indian skipper stated that the team is “cent percent behind” its senior fast bowler.
“Attacking someone because of their religion is, in my opinion, the most pathetic thing a human being can do. Everyone has the freedom to express themselves, but I’ve never considered discriminating against someone because of their faith “Virat stated a day before India’s Super 12 match against New Zealand in Dubai.
“People vent their frustrations because they don’t understand Mohammed Shami has won India a number of matches.” If people can look past that and his love for his nation. To be honest, I don’t want to waste a single second of my life on them. We are completely behind him and support him 100 percent.
Virat Kohli had previously criticized the online harassment of athletes, stating that making fun of people on social media has turned into entertainment, which is terrible.
