Indian vice-captain KL Rahul was criticized for his recent comments over Australia’s David Warner’s injury. Southpaw David Warner picked up a groin injury during Australia’s second ODI against India on Sunday. David Warner walked out of the ground in the second-innings and the opener has been ruled out for the 3rd ODI as well as the T20Is series. Left-handed Australian D’Arcy Short has replaced Warner for the T20i series.
Indian wicket-keeper KL Rahul has now found himself on the receiving end of a social-media outbreak after he passed on some “insensitive” comments while citing David Warner’s injury. KXIP’s skipper KL Rahul, in a post-match interview, said that it will be better for team India if Warner stays out of the pitch for a long tenure.
Netizens Thrash KL Rahul For His Comments
“We don’t know how bad his injury is. It would be nicer if he gets injured for a long time. One of their main batsmen. It is not nice to wish it for anyone but it would be good for the team. If his injury takes a long time, it would be good for our team,” Rahul had said in the virtual press-conferences after the second ODI.
Netizens pointed out KL Rahul’s apathy while talking about Warner’s injury. However, KL Rahul seemed to have passed the following statement in a sarcastic tone, referring to Warner’s terrific form against the Indians in the two ODIs. Nevertheless, Twitteratis were not happy with KL Rahul’s mockery about Warner’s injury as they confronted the right-handed batsmen on social-media.
