Here’s what she wrote: 

I have always been of opinion that maintaining silence on false & fabricated news and stories against one is best way to deal with your detractors. This is how I have handled my career for 11 years w. I always saw dignity & truth embedded in shadow of my silence.  

y say, say a lie so many times repeatedly that it starts to look like  truth and I am afraid this is what has been happening with me. My silence has made lies spitted against me seem true but that ends today.

I have stayed quiet through all times I was blamed for performance of my n boyfriend, w husband Virat and continue to take blame for most baseless things involving Indian cricket. I kept quiet n. My name has been used in fabricated stories claiming that I am part of close-door team meetings and influenced selection processes and I have kept silent. My name has been wrongfully used to say how I have been given preferential treatment or how I have overstayed my authorised time with my husband on foreign tours which if anyone really cared about finding facts from board, would kw that I have always and always followed protocol but yet. I kept quiet. 

My name was used for false stories to make it look like board was being bored for my tickets or security, etc when in reality I bought my own tickets for matches and flights and I still kept quiet. I was asked to stand in a group photo by High Commissioner’s wife despite my hesitation to be in it, and a huge issue was created over this blaming me for intentionally wanting to be part of it and said event, even though I was invited for it. An official clarification was issued by board on same and I still kept quiet. 

And latest version of se ill intended lies is that I was being served tea by selectors at matches during World Cup! I came to one game during World Cup and sat in family box and t selectors box as reported but when has truth mattered when it’s about convenience! If you want to have a comment on selection committee and ir qualifications please do so as it’s your opinion but don’t drag my name into it to substantiate your claim or sensationalise your opinion. I refuse to allow anyone from using my name in such conversations. 

It’s t like this last piece of ‘news’ has upset me more and that’s why I have decided to break my silence. y have all been as regressive and horrible and malicious and vicious. So, don’t take this letter as my retort to this ‘news’ . Today,  I have decided to speak up because someone’s silence cant be taken as ir weakness. I am t and will t be a pawn to be used by anyone’s thoughts or beliefs or ndas and next time you want to use my name to discredit someone or board or even my husband, do it with facts and proof & leave me OUT of it. I have led my life, built my own career with utmost dignity and I am t going to compromise that for anything. Maybe, it’s hard for some to believe that, because, I am a self-made, independent woman who only happens to be wife of a cricketer. 

... and for record, I drink coffee.
