Twitter slams Anushka Sharma for joining Team India in London
Actress Anushka Sharma recently accompanied husband cricketer Virat Kohli on his official tour to London, but this has not sit well with Indian circket fans.
The High Commission of India in London hosted the Indian cricket team on Tuesday and the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) tweet on the occasion has drawn the ire of the social media sphere. The Indian cricket team is currently playing five-match test series against England.
BCCI posted a picture on Twitter which had the entire Indian Cricket Team in the frame but the Twitter got stuck on Anushka, who was standing in the very first row next to captain Kohli. Whereas vice captain Ajinkya Rahane was seen in the last row.
None of the other players’ partners are present in the picture apart from Anushka.
