After the recent win on Sri Lankan soil by the Indian Test Cricket team, there’s been the usual outpouring of joy and congratulations over all forms of social media. Even Sachin hailed the rare and historic series win, one which has come for the first time in 22 years. Amidst all this regular revelry however, there’s also been a witty and rather smart rebuff to the people who mindlessly blamed Anushka Sharma for India’s loss in the semi final of the World Cup earlier.
Several people have been congratulating Anushka for the win, claiming if she has to face the blame for a loss, she should get the fame of a win as well.
According to HuffingtonPost , Twitter has seen an outpouring of support for her, all tongue-in-cheek. Check it!
Hey babe @anushkasharma ..Well done for making India & Virat win! Logic na..u ought to get the bouquets not just the damn brickbats! Hugs

Congrats to Anushka Sharma for the series win. Since she gets blamed when her boyfriend loses, it’s only fair she be applauded for this win.

And Congratulations to @AnushkaSharma . If Indians troll you when India is losing then they should thank you when we win. @imVkohli @BCCI
