Naseeruddin Shah trolled for commenting on Virat Kohli

The Indian team has just lost the second test against Australia in the ongoing series Down Under, and on Monday, Tim Paine, Australian captain, and Virat got into an argument. Umpire Chris Gaffaney was forced to intervene when Virat complained to him.

According to media reports, Tim said, ‘I know he's your captain, but you can't seriously like him as a bloke?’

And yesterday, things became serious when Virat questioned Tim’s technique.

Amidst all this, Naseeruddin Shah, an avid cricket fan, wrote on his social media handle, ‘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.’

Take a look at his post.

This did not go down well with Virat fans, and they trolled the actor. Check out some of the comments.

I do agree with Naseeruddin Shah, only if the standards are the ones set by the previous generations of players. I think Virat Kohli just reflects the attitude of this generation. We need to teach our kids how to behave. Thanks to Mr. Shah for starting the conversation. #AUSvIND

Naseeruddin Shah is not even India’s best actor to slam World’s best cricketer. #IndvAus #AusvInd

Naseeruddin Shah need not venture into areas he doesn't understand! He will look stupid.... actually he is looking pretty stupid right now with his comment.
Mr. Naseeruddin Shah, you should stick to what you know i.e. Films & Drama. Why make an ass out of yourself?

Naseeruddin Shah is the most hyped actor. Overacting is his forte. https://t.co/iEntkplTue

No sir, I disagree. Naseeruddin Shah should be made the Captain of Indian Team immediately & @imVkohli given some rest. Let him enjoy sometime with his family. Let Naseer lead the team for this series. This is the best chance to make sure this guy does not enter India back.
