Congress spokesperson Shama Mohamed faced backlash on social media for her harsh criticism and fat-shaming of Team India captain Rohit Sharma. Many users on X defended Sharma by highlighting India’s strong performance under his leadership. Known as “Hitman” for his batting prowess, Sharma’s achievements were widely cited to counter Mohamed’s remarks. In 2018, Shama had slammed Virat Kohli , the then Indian captain, for his “those who prefer English and Australian batsmen should not live in India” remark. She said”Virat Kohli plays a British invented game, makes crores from endorsing foreign brands, got married in Italy, names Hershelle Gibbs his favorite cricketer and Angelique Kerber the best tennis player, but tells those who love foreign batsmen to leave India,” she said.
