Former cricketer Aakash Chopra has shut down a Twitter troll who blamed him for Team India’s recent loss in the World Test Championship Final against Australia. Despite receiving criticism from the fan blaming him for the loss, Chopra handled it gracefully and took the blame, saying he did commentary for both the 2013 Champions Trophy and the Asia Cup.
The Indian cricket team’s loss in the WTC Final was a disappointment, as the bowlers and batsmen both displayed an average performance. The Australian pace attack was strong, and none of the Indian batsmen stayed at the crease for long, getting out for low scores. The bowlers gave away several runs on Day One, which gave Australia an early lead.
India’s batting, which was supposed to be a strength of the team, failed to deliver, with Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, and Virat Kohli all performing poorly. Ajinkya Rahane was the only top performer, helping India avoid the follow-on in the first innings.
Despite his average career as a cricketer, Aakash Chopra has been making a name for himself as a commentator, often seen during India’s matches and other ICC tournaments. However, the Twitter troll blamed him for India’s loss, with the team failing to win an ICC tournament since he began commentating in 2013. Chopra handled the criticism with grace and humility, acknowledging the fan’s point of view and taking the blame.
India lost their eighth knockout match in the last ten years, with the team now looking to prepare for the upcoming World Cup 2023. The loss in the WTC Final was a disappointment, but the team will be looking to bounce back and put up a strong performance in the next ICC tournament.
