10 most Trolled cricketers in the world
In recent years, it has been witnessed that these international cricketers have often been targeted by trollers.
9. Steven Smith
Steven Smith is one of the best Test batters in the current times. In his 13-year international career, the Australia veteran has won a lot of games with his potential and skills. However, in these 13 years, Smith has also gone through tough phases of his life. Smith, who was the Australia captain during his team's tour of South Africa in 2018, got involved in the ball-tampering scandal along with teammates David Warner and Cameron Bancroft.
Following the incident, Cricket Australia (CA) banned Smith for a year for breaching the code of conduct. After getting banned, Smith also came out for a press conference, in which he was seen crying and repenting (of his actions). The infamous ball-tampering incident tarnished his image and since then, the Australia batting maestro's critics try to bring him down reminding him about the infamous episode.
During India versus Australia game in the World Cup 2019 at the Oval, spectators attempted to troll Smith but Virat Kohli, who was present at the crease, intervened and asked fans to cheer for him. In the Ashes 2023, England supporters raised ‘We saw you cry on Telly’ slogans to embarrass Smith.
