Bollywood sensation Anushka Sharma is no stranger to both appreciation and trolling across social media platforms. The better half of India skipper Virat Kohli, Anushka has perhaps made it to the news for wrong reasons more often than not in recent times. Well, the fans rarely squander a chance to troll Anushka on social media.

Recently, they slammed her for accompanying the team to the Indian High Commission house in London. The Board of Control for Cricket in India had posted a picture of the team members and support staff with officials of the High Commission.

Anushka also featured in the picture, standing next to Kohli. However, her presence did not go down well with the fans who were clueless as to why she is being allowed to travel with the team in the first place during the ongoing five-match Test series.

Anushka is the only WAG who is still accompanying her partner on the United Kingdom (UK) tour. What made matter worse is that Anushka was standing in the front row with Kohli’s deputy standing in the last row. Not surprisingly, the fans did not take long to express their displeasure.

Well, the fans are set to face another bouncer as Anushka is in contention to become the Indian team manager. The position is vacant as of now, and Anushka has thrown her hat in the ring.

Knockout Punch from Anushka Sharma:

Reports suggest that the Bollywood actress decided because of the privileges she enjoys as Indian cricket team skipper’s wife. Unlike the other star wives, Anushka has the option to stay with the team as long as she wants.

Anushka is now comfortable to stay around all the players who eventually made her the front-runner to bag the coveted position. What further boosts her chances are the support of the players.

Sources further revealed that the players had backed Anushka for the role. The source added that while some players want Anushka to take the position, others are scared that if they go against her, they might lose their spot in the team.

The source, on the condition of anonymity, further said appointing Anushka Sharma would help the players improve their style quotient while serving as the Team India manager.

As of now, nothing much is available on the whole development. But we are keeping track of all latest happenings in this regard. Take a deep breath, we will soon come up with more details.
