Sehwag Slams Trolls For Poking Fun At Pak Skipper Sarfraz’s English With Just ONE Tweet

There is a clear line in our society of class or stature. No?

Let me give you an example. I travel in Mumbai local everyday. There are two classes in the women’s compartment – the first and the second. There are three kind of sleepers in trains, there is business and economy in flights and there is upper and lower in buses.

While those classes and niches have been carved out for comfort, there is something we deliberately do that is making those divisions clearer. Judging someone based their religion, colour, dialect, or any other thing that meets the eye, is the work of a shallow man/woman or in today’s world – a troll.

Pakistan’s skipper Sarfraz Ahmed was criticised and brutally trolled on Twitter for the way he spoke English. Many found it very funny and memes started flooding in abundance.

 

The world needs to understand something, he is on the field to play. And Sehwag pointed out just that. He stood-up to take Sarfraz Ahmed’s side and just like that, Twitter’s master-blaster knocked all trolls out of the stadium!

Criticizing Sarfaraz for not speaking English is insane.His job is to play&he has done brilliantly 2 take Pak in finals #StopColonialMindset

The internet applauded Sehwag as he stood-up for a fellow cricketer. He did not let the sport’s rivalry get the better of him. Here’s what the people had to say –

1. Viru’s Pak fans, sending love.

Well Said love from pak

This is exactly why Twitter loves Virender Sehwag. He is never shy to speak his mind and always stands up for what is right.
