Shobhaa De Walks Into A Volley Of Trolls After Making Bizarre Comment About The Indian Women¡¯s Cricket Team
Habits die hard for Shobhaa De
Shobhaa De generally walks into trolls like nobody's business. When we heard of her the last time, she was getting trolled by Virender Sehwag and many others on Twitter followed suit. This time around, she's brought the troll wave on herself after making a bizarre comment about the women's cricket team.
Taking to Twitter, she said that an effort must be made to keep the women's cricket team away from the limelight and crass commercialisation and greed of the limelight.
Oh Lord! Please protect our amazing women cricketers from crass commercialisation and greed that has ruined most of our Boys in Blue.

And subsequently trolls happened. Some of them will even crack you up.
Beg to differ Mam, why should boys have all the fun ? Irrespective, the girl gang should also enjoy the kick backs ..

Translation: Men can define their own success, but not women. No, we can't have women be both good at cricket and rich.

Thats below the belt madam. You can be appreciative of women without pulling the men down

So if you earn in crores by way of your writing, it's the god's way. But if our boys get paid in crores by advertisers, it's sin! Wah re wah

So only the boys can get rich and the girls don't. Go girls.

At least our amazing women cricket team is getting some recognition, love , money, that they deserved but we failed to give them.

True, they will not afford BMW services like Deepa Karmakar, instead of luxury cars, give them financial support for livelihood.

What De said is a complete blunder. What's the problem in getting under the spotlight? And what's the problem if women cricketers actually enjoy a chunk of commercialisation that has affected cricket? Above all, how has greed ruined our Boys in Blue? They're doing just fine under Kohli's stewardship?
