Virat Kohli Makes Us Proud By Standing Up For Anushka Sharma

Virat Kohli lashes out at people for trolling Anushka Sharma.

Anushka Sharma has been constantly trolled due to her association with Virat Kohli. Cricket fanatics have gone as far as to blame her for Virat’s poor performances on the cricket field, calling her a distraction, especially during the ICC World Cup 2015.

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli are no longer a couple, but that hasn’t silenced the trolls.

After giving an amazing performance in the India vs Australia T20 match on Sunday, DNA ran a story to “praise” Virat, wondering whether Anushka will message to congratulate him.

This was just the start. Tweeple, as expected, labelled Anushka bad luck for Virat and Team India.

Furious with such messages, Virat took to social media to express his anger at the baseless trolls.

Sharing a picture on Instagram, he said that people should be ashamed of themselves for making fun of Anushka who has been nothing but a source of positivity for him.

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. 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. And i dont 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. #nocompassion#nocommonsense
