The dispute started on social media. Shama Mohammed wrote- Rohit Sharma is thick as a player. They need to lose weight! And of course, India’s most ineffective captain. On this post of Shama, the fans defended Rohit and supported his fitness and captaincy. At the same time, some people also questioned Rohit’s fitness. Rohit Sharma is one of the most successful batsmen in India.
The incident has again sparked a debate on the standards of the players’ fitness and captaincy in Indian cricket. However, a user spoke of rising above fitness standards and said- more important than this is that when the Indian team and its captain need the support of the fans, then the leader of a party does such a body shaming.
A user named Nishant wrote a sarcasm at Rahul Gandhi without naming- You look at your boss, which is not suitable at all for politics and is making history of losing elections. Rohit Sharma has made us proud, will continue to do and do it.
A user named Harish wrote- A ‘Motte’ player has more win than Rahul Gandhi and as a ‘fat’ player, he is capable of arising confidence not only in his team but all over India. This is the tolerance of a party representative where A physical appearance is more important than talent.
