Bollywood veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah once called Virat Kohli the ‘world’s worst behaved player’, which caused a debate on social media.
Not so long back, in the year 2018, when Indian captain Virat Kohli, was grabbing national headlines for his verbal spat with Australia captain Tim Paine during a series Down Under.
Post that, Virat had faced a lot of criticism; a few supported him also. Social media was divided into two groups. During that time Naseeruddin Shah called Virat Kohli the “world’s worst behaved player” in a Facebook post.
Naseeruddin Shah, wrote, “Virat K is not only the worlds best batsman but also the worlds worst behaved player. His cricketing brilliance pales beside his arrogance and bad manners. And I have no intention of leaving the country by the way, (SIC)."
According to previous reports, Naseeruddin’s Facebook post appears to react to an earlier video featuring Virat where he asked a fan to leave the country. When a fan had said he admires/likes English and Australian batsmen more than Indian batsmen.
While many criticised Naseeruddin’s Facebook post for terming Kohli the “worst behaved player”, others supported him. There was a mixed reaction from fans and followers of the cricketer and the actor.
Virat is currently in Dubai for IPL 2021; he recently decided to part ways with T20 Internationals captaincy after the upcoming T20 World Cup 2021. Many reports suggest that it alleges that things are not very good inside the Indian dressing room.
