Like Clockwork, Anushka Sharma Gets Trolled For Virat Kohli’s Game In ICC WTC Final. But Fan Support Is Louder!
They should grow up!
Indian Cricket fans should stop blaming celeb wives for a player’s failure during a match. These angry trolls make it a point to target a player’s wife whenever anything goes wrong with the match. Actress Anushka Sharma has often been on the receiving end of these hate trolls and she was again targeted after India lost to Australia in the ICC World Test Championship 2023. However, many of the actress’s fans came forward to show their support and bash the trolls in return.

After India lost to Australia in the ICC World Test Championship 2023, many disappointed fans turned trolls took to Twitter to take out their anger about the match. However, instead of pointing fingers at Virat Kohli who delivered an underwhelming performance during the match, these angry fans trolled Anushka Sharma for no reason. They used words like “Panauti” and unlucky for the actress and in return blamed her for the team’s loss at the ICC World Test Championship 2023.

People went ahead to demand petitions for not allowing Anushka Sharma in any cricket match. Some people also tweeted in favour of cricketers’ wives not being allowed at the matches just like an army personnel’s wife does not go the wars with them.

But amid these trolls, many Twitter users also came out to support Anushka Sharma against these trolls. They bashed the trolls for unnecessary criticism of the actress, instead of condemning the cricketer’s performance on the field.
I don't understand the hate for anushka, especially from kohli stans :(
Kohli faced all this alone and the sole reason why he survived all this was anushka sharma. That lady helped him when cricket disappointed him and yet the disrespect she gets.— Y (@itsYashswiniR) June 12, 2023

Dear solanki please grow out of the racist cocoon u r in. Why r u only attributing a man's failures to his wife and not his success. There will be failures and success but it's of his own and don't try berating anybody. Anushka & Virat are strong independent individuals

Please do not blame @AnushkaSharma for the loss or the team not performing well. she has every right to be there and cheer for her husband and team India.

This is so pathetic because it has now become a common thing to bash a cricketer’s wife for the team’s loss. And what is with the whole superstition that whenever the wife is present it turns out to be bad luck for the cricketers. Can these angry cricket fans not come up with more reasonable justifications to criticise the team’s defeat?
