Fans At It Again: Anushka Sharma Trolled Again Despite Raising Voice Against Detractors

Former India wicketkeeper Farokh Engineer created a storm on Thursday with his comment for India’s current selection panel. Lashing out at the MSK Prasad-led selection committee, Engineer had questioned the credibility of the selectors. The ex-cricketer also sensationally claimed that the BCCI selectors were getting Anushka Sharma cups of tea during a World Cup match in England earlier this year.

Later in the day, Anushka Sharma took to Twitter to blast her detractors. She made it clear that she had attended just one match during the World Cup and was seated in the family box.

“The latest version of these ill intended lies is that I was being served tea by selectors at matches during the World Cup! I came to one game during the World Cup and sat in the family box and not the selectors box as reported but when has the truth mattered when it’s about convenience!

“If you want to have a comment on the selection committee and their qualifications please do so as it’s your opinion but don’t drag my name into it to substantiate your claim or sensationalise your opinion. I refuse to allow anyone from using my name in such conversations,” Anushka wrote in the lengthy post on her social media accounts.

In her post, Anushka Sharma also spoke about the constant trolling and backlash she faces on the social media from a section of the fans. Last year, she was slammed by a number of fans after she accompanied the team to the High Commission of India in India. She was the only player’s wife in the function.

But the post from Anushka Sharma seems to have made little difference as she was trolled again. While most of the fans praised her for raising her voice, there were some who trolled her for the way she ended her post by writing ‘I drink coffee’.

Here are some of the reactions: 

I can't believe you drink only coffee , despite Shastri being part of the team.

Also, you need to learn from Mayanti.
Her husband is not even a waterboy/ballboy in the team.
Has she ever protested even once?

KL Rahul suffered from Coffee.

Hardik Pandya suffered from Coffee.

Anushka Sharma suffered from Tea.

Reason why Ravi Shastri's only focus on drinking Wine.#Anushka

How the hell Virat has the right to allow only his wife when team is on official tour? Is she the chairman of BCCI?
Farook said everything right. It has been such burnol moment for Virat fans
