Former Indian opener Virendra Sehwag came with a rather explosive statement after Pakistan-Bangladesh fans accused Kohli and ICC for favoring Indian Team in T20 World Cup 2022. As soon as the match between India and Bangladesh ended, opener Hossain Shanto said that he was distracted by Kohli’s fake fielding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shanto called out the former Indian skipper for distracting him during Litton\u2019s run out. He said that the ball was in KL Rahul\u2019s hand and he was throwing it to Dinesh Karthik\u2019s wicket. But Kohli who was standing in the way acted as if he\u2019s throwing the ball towards the bowlers end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon Pakistan fans also joined the band and started accusing Virat of cheating and in no time #Cheating was trending on Twitter. But former cricketers like Virendra Sehwag and Sunil Gavaskar slammed the internet and Bangladesh players. Sehwag suggested that their players should play a responsible innings like Kohli did and take the game till the end, rather than coming up with nonsense statement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the unversed, the Indian bowling attack has a terrific comeback and registered a 5 run victory at Adelaide in a crucial situation. Bangladesh was 17 runs ahead of India according to DLS method. Their opener Litton Das had already scored a half century in 22 balls before rain interrupted the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But KL Rahul’s direct throw and regular wickets by Indian bowling attack restricted Bangladesh and snatched a five run victory to become the table toppers of Group 2 in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Bangladesh opener and fans might not have taken this defeat in the right spirit but their captain surely did. While talking during the post-match presentation Shakib Al Hasan refused to agree that the Bangladesh vs India match was unfair towards them. In fact he said that the after rain the scenario was more profitable towards them but they could not score 52 run in five over, which several teams have done in the past, despite being 17 runs ahead in the DLS par score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
