Anushka Sharma Slams Sunil Gavaskar's Comment On Virat's Performance

The IPL season is on and the controversies are making a comeback too. Last night when Kings XI Punjab won the cricket match over Royal Challengers Bangalore, Sunil Gavaskar made an unsavory comment in the commentator's box about Virat Kohli who leads the latter team.

While doing commentary Gavaskar made a comment saying on Virat’s performance, ‘Inhone lockdown me to bas Anushka ki gendon ki practice ki hai.’

Anushka took to her Instagram to give a befitting reply to Sunil as she pours her words in her Instagram story.

She wrote: “That, Mr Gavaskar, your message was distasteful is a fact but I would love for you to explain why you thought of making such a sweeping statement on a wife accusing her for her husband’s game? I’m sure over the years you have respected the private lives of every cricketer while commentating on the game. Don’t you think you should have equal amount of respect for me and us? I’m sure you can have many other words and sentences in your mind to use to comment on my husband’s performance from last night or are your words only relevant if you use my name in the process? It’s 2020 and things still don’t change for me. When will I stop getting dragged into cricket and stop being used to pass sweeping statements? Respected Mr. Gavaskar, you are a legend whose name stands tall in this gentleman’s game. Just wanted to tell you what I felt when I heard you say this.”
