India’s World Cup-winning bowler Harbhajan Singh made information for the incorrect causes on Sunday. The spin-bowler was criticised on-line for his misogynist feedback on Anushka Sharma and Athiya Shetty — the life companions of Indian internationals Virat Kohli and KL Rahul respectively.
Harbhajan Singh, a part of the Hindi commentary field for Sunday’s ICC ODI World Cup 2023 last between Australia and India, made the stated assertion when Athiya and Anushka had been proven on digicam.
Reacting to the 2 ladies interacting with one another, Harbhajan Singh reportedly stated on air, “Aur yeh fundamental soch raha tha ki baat cricket ki ho rahi hai ya filmon ki. Kyunki filmon ke barein mein toh janta nahi kitni samajh hogi (And I used to be questioning whether or not they had been speaking about cricket or movies. As a result of I’m not certain how a lot understanding they’ve about cricket).”
Quickly after the assertion received clipped and shared on the web, Harbhajan, typically known as Bhajji, was known as out by many on social media for his “sexist” mindset. Some X (previously Twitter) demanded an apology from him.
