The entire country is on cloud 9 as India won against Australia in the semi-finals of the Champions Trophy which took place on Tuesday, March 5. Not just that, but Virat Kohli scored 84 runs and got the player of the match. He also broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record of the highest ever ODI 50s. Just before the Australia match, when India played against New Zealand, Virat got out at 11 runs. Anushka Sharma was there in the stands and people yet again attributed the cricketer’s dull performance to her presence. Meanwhile, the actress was heavily trolled when 10 years ago, India lost against Australia and people blamed Anushka.
Well now, life has come a full circle it seems. Fans of Anushka and Virat are giving it back to those who have trolled the actress. Some are also regretting it. Here’s what they have to say. A user wrote, “10 years challenge for Virat and Anushka ❤️ 10 years ago he didn’t scored in semis and people trolled him and Anushka.10 years she was present in stadium and he scored and won India the match against aus.”
Another one said, “Anushka’s presence in the stands is the reason why virat was able to get his 100 and break sachin’s record EVWRYONE SAY THANK YOU ANUSHKAA.” A user also gave it back to people saying that those trolling Anushka are just jealous. Someone said, “To the men who claim Virat underperforms when Anushka is in the stands, you’re just jealous because he actually replies to her texts, and he’s married to her & not you. and to the women joining in on the hate, do better; tearing another woman down isn’t the flex you think it is.”
A fan recalled, “remember when anushka’s effigies were burnt in 2015 after we lost against aus? remember when she was called a distraction for merely supporting her then bf? today, we won while she was present. we won because her husband scored a match winning 84. life comes in a circle. 🧿🥹💙”
Virat is often known to thank Anushka after every match for always being there by his side.
