After remaining mum on a number of related matters for the longest period, Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma finally broke her silence, responding to all allegations through a Twitter post on Thursday. In her long Twitter post, Sharma slammed critics for blaming her over incidents in which she had no part. Sharma mentioned the various incidents including the team photo which she was a part of for which she was criticized heavily and recent media reports which alleged that selectors served Sharma team during the ICC World Cup in 2019.

Anushka Sharma responded to the flak that she received on various occasions through the years. She started with the dip in Virat Kohli's performance a few years back for which she was somehow blamed. Netizens and critics had then accounted her presence in the 'stands' as a reason for the stint of poor performances of India's ace batsmen and now captain Virat Kohli. She said, "I have stayed quiet through all the times I was blamed for the performance of my then-boyfriend, now-husband Virat and continue to take blame for the most baseless things involving Indian cricket." While mentioning the recent media reports of the Indian selectors serving her tea at a World Cup match, she said that she attended only one match and saw the match from the Family Box and not the Selectors Box.
