Shame on people for trolling Anushka: Virat Kohli
New Delhi: India’s star batsman Virat Kohli has slammed haters for trolling his former girlfriend Anuskha Sharma.
“Shame on people for trolling Anushka Sharma non-stop. Have some compassion. She has always only given me positivity,” Kohli wrote on Twitter on Monday.
He wrote a longer message on Instagram to extend support to the Bollywood actress.
“Shame on those people who have been having a go at Anushka for the longest time and connecting every negative thing to her. Shame on those people calling themselves educated. Shame on blaming and making fun of her when she has no control over what I do with my sport,” Kohli wrote in the post.
“If anything she has only motivated and given me more positivity. This was long time coming. Shame on these people that hide and take a dig,” he said, while adding that he doesn’t need any “respect for this post”.
“Have some compassion and respect her. Think of how your sister or girlfriend or wife would feel if someone trolled them and very conveniently rubbished them in public,” he wrote.

Sunil Gavaskar gives his opinion of GT allrounder Rahul Tewatia
The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.
Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
