New Delhi, 20th December: On Saturday the Indian cricket fans woke up to the worst score of Indian Team in Adelaide, where Australia won by 8 wickets in the first Test match.
Baaghi TV: The Indian cricket team under the captainship of Virat Kohli faced its worst defeat while collapsing to its lowest Test score of 36.
Sulking Indian fans started blaming Bollywood actor and Captain Kohli’s wife Anushka Sharma for the poor performance of Team India.
According to reports from the Indian news agency, National Herald, the criticism by netizens on social media was worse and more insensitive than before because this time the actor’s pregnancy was highlighted and blamed.
Some wrote that Virat Kohli wants to go to his wife as soon as possible because she was in labour pains.
The only explanation for this is that Anushka Sharma just went into labor and they’re trying to get Kohli back in time for the birth. #AUSvIND

Apparently, almost every time Team India performs poorly in cricket, Captain Kohli’s actor wife Anushka Sharma is blamed by the lamenting netizens.
Here is a collection of tweets, many of them even criticising people for blaming Anushka:
Anushka Sharma and Sushant Singh Rajput are responsible for all the problems that exist in our country. Just saying! #Justice4SSRDec19 https://t.co/VCxbtv0elW

On the other hand, many netizens defended Anushka Sharma expressing that its shameful for dragging the captains’ wife for his bad performance.
People who drag anushka everytime india doesn't have a good game should be ashamed of themselves pity them & there sad life who have nothing else to do then just spread negativity for someone who is not even involved in the sport.
You deserve only love #ViratKohli #AnushkaSharma— Jennie 💙 (@Jenniex110) December 19, 2020
Why is #AnushkaSharma being blamed for #TeamIndia 's performance? Indians put too much importance on the woman in a relationship and her influence over the man's work. If @AnushkaSharma produced a flop film, would #viratkholi be blamed for it? 😏 #INDvsAUSTest pic.twitter.com/dboAYpAHnG
