Is Bachchan Being TROLLED For Tweeting That Harsha Bhogle's Commentary Was 'Biased'?
Twitterati is lashing out at Amitabh Bachchan for hinting at Harsha Bhogle's commentary and calling it 'biased'. Even though Bachchan hasn't named anyone, his past history has made social media users to believe that he is taking a dig at Bhogle's commentary. Read on to know the whole story...
Amitabh Bahchan has a staunch fan-following on social media. So whatever he posts is scrutinized by millions. Time and again, Sr Bachchan has fallen into the lap of controversy - and we have found the latest one.
It so happened that after India's smashing victory against South Africa in the first T20 cricket match, Big B took to Twitter to congratulate the team. However, he didn't stop himself from taking a a dig at the commentary, which he termed as 'biased'.

Amitabh's tweet read, "T 2619 - INDIA wins first T20 against SoAf .. brilliant play .. loved the aggression .. and loved the bias commentating .. keep doing that please ..coz' every time you do that we WIN handsomely ! (sic)."
While Amitabh didn't name anyone, Twitterati believed that he is talking about Harsha Bhogle. He was trolled massively and here's what some of the trolls had to say:
Amitabh Bachchan Trolled
Amitabh Bachchan Trolled
Amitabh Bachchan Trolled
Amitabh Bachchan Trolled
Amitabh Bachchan Trolled
Twitterati's guess is more solidified as Big B had taken a dig at Bhogle's commentary back in 2016 as well.
T 2184 - With all due respects, it would be really worthy of an Indian commentator to speak more about our players than others all the time.

Sr Bachchan had tweeted, "T 2184 - With all due respects, it would be really worthy of an Indian commentator to speak more about our players than others all the time (sic)."
Soon after, Bhogle was sacked from the commentary team by the BCCI. He soon posted a statement on his Facebook page where he opened up about the whole incident. Bhogle had written, "I have, incidentally, sent Mr. Bachchan a DM on twitter offering an explanation (in passing, the fact that he follows me gives me a great buzz!) (sic)."
Bhogle was out of the commentary box for the whole of 2016 and the early months of 2017. He made a comeback during India's tour of West Indies last year.
Will Big B's comments once again land Bhogle into trouble? Or will Big B clear as to who he was referring to? Only time will tell.
