5 times when players were criticized by fans for mocking Indian cricketers
It is very important for players to use social media properly, else the players can be mocked by the fans
5. Mushfiqur Rahim – MS Dhoni
Mushfiqur Rahim is a fierce character and it is visible during his batting stays. Like every wicket-keeper, he is a lively player, but sometimes he has gone too far ahead with his aggression on the field. Rahim has a habit of showing his emotions in the front of the camera and in the past he has been criticized for it. When India lost to Windies in the 2016 T20 semi-final Rahim took a futile step.
As Bangla tigers lost a close tie in Bangalore against the hosts India the team was ousted from the tournament. The Indian team reached the semi-final, and there they lost to eventual champions Windies. Right after the tie, Rahim tweeted a post of being happy with the exit of India from the World Cup, and his message contained an image of MS Dhoni’s press conference.
At that time he was vilified for his actions by the entire cricketing fraternity, and the cricket lovers pronounced his reactions as ugly tactics. Some of the posts read that he lacked sportsmanship and was also called a little kid. Even though he apologized for the damage it was already beyond repair, and he lost respect among the Indian fans.
In this age of networking cricketers has to be smart and they don’t need to invite trolls for unnecessary activities as sometimes it can hamper their personal and professional life.
