In the final of the World Cup 2023, India had to face defeat by 6 wickets at the hands of Australia. India’s dream of becoming ODI World Cup champions for the third time was shattered when Australia captured the trophy for the sixth time. India entered the final after winning 10 consecutive matches. Australian players and their families were heavily trolled on social media after Team India’s defeat. Many people made hateful and vulgar comments. Former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh has hit out at trolls. He said that such actions should be stopped.
Harbhajan wrote on social media platform ‘X’ on Tuesday that there are reports of Australian cricketers trolling family members, which is not good at all. We played well but lost in the final because of good cricket from the Australian team. That’s all. Why troll players and their families? All cricket fans are requested to stop such behavior. Discretion and dignity are more important.
Let us tell you that after the final, Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell’s wife Vinnie Raman expressed her displeasure over trolling. Winnie is of Indian origin and was born in Australia. “I can’t believe this needs to be said but you can be an Indian and support the country where you were born and raised,” he said on Instagram. More importantly, you can support the team that your husband, the father of your child, plays for. Breathe a sigh of relief and channel your anger towards other important issues in the world.
In addition to Vinny, Travis Head and his family were also badmouthed. Head scored a century in the title match. Chasing a target of 241 runs, he scored 137 runs off 120 balls with the help of 15 fours and 4 sixes. Head put on a 192-run partnership for the fourth wicket with Marnus Labuschagne (58 not out), which prevented the Indian team from getting back into the match.
