Virat Kohli’s WTC Final Dismissal Evokes Anushka Sharma’s Viral Reaction, Netizens Deem it as the ‘Collective Sentiment of Indians’

In a devastating blow to the aspirations of millions of cricket fans in India, Australia emerged victorious in the 2023 edition of the World Test Championship, defeating India by a staggering 209 runs on Sunday. Despite the valiant efforts of the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team to mount a respectable challenge, Australia proved to be an insurmountable obstacle from the very beginning of the match.

The individual contributions of players like Rohit Sharma, who scored 43 runs from 60 deliveries, and former captain Virat Kohli, who managed 49 runs from 78 balls in the second innings, were not enough to shield the sinking Indian team from their inevitable defeat.

However, amidst the heartbreak and disappointment, a photograph of a visibly devastated Anushka Sharma, who was present at the Oval, has now gone viral. Captions accompanying the image suggest that it represents the collective sentiment of cricket enthusiasts across India.

Captured right after the Australian team claimed the crucial wicket of Virat Kohli, the image portrays a shattered Anushka leaning forward, her hands folded and pressed against her chin, reflecting her profound distress and despair in that moment.

The image quickly circulated on social media platforms, with fans empathizing with Anushka and expressing their support. Many urged others not to involve players’ families in the discussion and to stand by Anushka during this challenging time.

“Anushka Sharma – A lady can’t be her hubby’s weakness #WTCFinal2023. Stop dragging a player’s family in between every time. Stand with this lady @AnushkaSharma #AnushkaSharma,” wrote one user, highlighting the need to respect players’ personal lives and not hold them responsible for on-field outcomes. Check the tweet:

Anushka Sharma, a well-known Bollywood actress and Virat Kohli’s wife, has often faced unwarranted criticism and blame whenever her husband or the Indian cricket team faced setbacks. This viral image has sparked conversations about the pressures and expectations placed on players’ families and the need for empathy and support in such situations.

While the WTC Final may not have had the desired outcome for Indian cricket fans, it serves as a reminder of the highs and lows that come with the game. Through it all, the collective sentiment of fans stands strong, ready to rally behind their team and show unwavering support in the face of defeat.
