Cricketers in India face a lot of pressure. They are showered with adoration and support whenever they achieve success. On the other hand, on bad days, cricketers have also experienced their homes being broken into, and the security of their families has been put in jeopardy, as fans have thrown stones at their homes and burned effigies of them in the street.
These trolls abuse their families online without even sparing the children.?Trolls like them do more harm than good for cricket; therefore, it should be no surprise that they aren't cricket fans.?
This week, the abuse suffered by the daughters of former Indian captains MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli came to light thanks to the efforts of Swati Maliwal, chairperson of the Delhi Commission for Women.?
Swati highlighted the deliberately inflammatory behavior of some of their fans on social media and demanded that police reports be filed.?
She took to Twitter to write: "Such nasty things about a 2-year-old & a 7-year-old girl? If you don't like a player, will you abuse his daughter? Issuing notice to police to register an FIR."?
Today marks Vamika, Virat, and Anushka's daughter's, second birthday.?
Keeping their daughter away from the cameras and the world's attention to give her a simple childhood seems to be a priority for Virat and Anushka.?
Therefore, they've decided not to disclose her photo publicly and have asked the TV media not to click on their daughter wherever they go.
After the World Cup, Sakshi took a?photo of Ziva in the Lionel Messi-signed Argentina shirt and shared it on Instagram, where it quickly gained a huge fan base.
