The Australian cricket team silenced more than 1 lakh crowd at the Narendra Modi Motera Stadium, Ahmedabad at the World Cup finals after defeating India at the CWC finals. Ex-cricketer Harbhajan Singh, who was also one of the commentators at the grand event, tweeted about the trolling Aussie cricketers and their families have been facing after this mega event. Threats of sexual assault were directed at Travis Head's wife and daughter, prompting Vini Raman, Glenn Maxwell's partner, to address these abhorrent comments on her social media platform. Additionally, Jimmy Neesham shared his own encounters with hate from some Indian fans, shedding light on the toxicity faced by players off the field.

Reports of trolling of family members of Australian cricket players is completely in bad taste. We played well but lost the final to better cricket by the Aussies. That's it. Why troll the players and their families? Requesting all cricket fans to stop such behaviour. Sanity and…

Where was the support for Gill when he and his sister were ab*sed?

On social media, allegations surfaced suggesting that certain Pakistani accounts posing as Indian profiles have been issuing disturbing threats of death and sexual assault to the families of cricket players. India, often regarded as a paradise for both cricketers and fans alike, holds a special place in the hearts of international players. Many have attested that the sheer excitement of playing in India surpasses any other experience in the world of cricket. What are your thoughts?
