Veteran off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin opened up about the growing negativity surrounding Indian cricket on social media. The 39-year-old backed head coach Gautam Gambhir's message and urged fans to stop attacking individuals, reminding everyone that criticism should never cross into personal abuse.
Ashwin's response came at a time when the head coach has been facing criticism after India lost the home Test series 0-2 to South Africa. The Men in Blue had also suffered a 0-3 whitewash in the Test series against New Zealand last year. Fans questioned his methods and even demanded a separate red-ball coach.
