A
day
after
Anushka
Sharma's
daughter
Vamika's
pictures
went
viral
on
social
media,
the
actress
found
herself
in
news
again
when
former
cricketer
Shoaib
Akhtar
passed
a
misogynist
comment
when
asked
about
her
cricketer-husband
Virat
Kohli's
recent
decision
of
quitting
as
Test
captain
of
the
Indian
cricket
team.
In
an
interview,
Akhtar
said
that
Virat
should
not
have
gotten
married,
hinting
at
the
idea
that
his
bad
performance
on
the
field
was
linked
to
his
marriage
with
Anushka.
Shoaib
told
Dainik
Jagran,
"I
would
have
not
even
married
if
I
were
in
his
place.
I
had
just
scored
runs
and
enjoyed
cricket,
these
10-12
years
of
cricket
are
different
time
and
doesn't
come
again,
I
am
not
saying
getting
married
is
wrong
but
If
you
are
playing
for
India,
you
would
have
enjoyed
the
time
a
little."
He
continued,
"There
is
pressure
from
the
children,
of
the
family.
As
the
responsibility
increases,
so
does
the
pressure.
Cricketers
have
a
short
career
span
of
14-15
years
in
which
you
stay
at
the
peak
for
five-six
years.
Those
years
of
Virat
have
passed,
now
he
has
to
struggle," adding
that
a
cricket
captain
should
get
married
only
after
retiring
from
the
role.
Shoiab's
statements
didn't
go
down
well
with
Anushka's
fans
who
bashed
him
left,
right
and
centre.
A
netizen
wrote,
"Shameful.
Trying
to
seek
attention
by
commenting
on
personal
life
of
Virat
Kohli.
He
should
speak
about
sorry
state
of
citizens
and
cricket
in
Pakistan."
Another
comment
read,
"Lol...
They
are
in
relationship
since
2013
and
got
married
in
2017.
Check
his
stats
of
Year
2017,
2018,
2019.
His
highest
peak
in
his
career
came
in
year
2018."
Another
fan
added,
"Mein
bata
ta
hu
(Let
me
tell
you).
After
marriage
Kapil
won
WC
83.
After
marriage
Dhoni
won
WC
11.
After
marriage
Virat
won
WC
19.
All
after
one
year
of
marriage."
A
Twitter
user
even
cities
cricketing
legend
Sachin
Tendulkar's
example
and
said,
"Sachin
had
no
problem
being
married
and
having
children
and
making
runs
and
records."
Meanwhile,
Anushka
had
got
emotional
when
Virat
had
announced
his
resignation
from
Test
Captaincy
and
had
even
penned
a
heartfelt
note
for
him
in
which
she
had
emphasized
her
pride
for
her.
