President of BCCI and former Indian skipper, Sourav Ganguly is one of the most loved cricketers of India, who over the time has given us many amazing and brilliant moments on-field. Besides his impeccable batting skills, it was his fearless attitude on-field, that gained him all the love and respect of the Indian fans.
However, Sourav Ganguly has now found himself at the receiving end of criticism and trolling for a Tweet that he posted after the Indian women cricket team lost the World Cup final to Australians.
The hopes and dreams of the Indian cricket fans to see our ‘women in blue’ winning their first-ever ICC Women’s T20 World Cup ended in a heartbreaking manner as they were defeated by the Australian cricket team by 85 runs. They were bundled up at 99 runs only as the much-anticipated match ended failed to live up to the expectations.
Following the loss, the complete Indian cricket fraternity took to their social media and showed their support to the Indian women’s team. Sourav Ganguly also joined the bandwagon and posted a Tweet for the Indian women lauding the efforts that they put throughout the tournament. Praising the Indian women team, Sourav Ganguly wrote:
“Well done the Women’s team @bcci @JayShah .. Two back to back World Cup finals .. but we lost .. u we’re super .. we will get there someday .. love the team and players”
Here, check out Sourav Ganguly’s Tweet:

However, his Tweet didn’t go down well with the Indian cricket fans who are now trolling him left, right and center for tagging ‘Jay Shah’, who is BCCI secretary and son of Amit Shah, in his Tweet.
Here, check out the reactions of Twitterati on this:

Dada is losing his respect, sad but true. Everyone is criticising him for tagging Jay Shah. It’s not a good sign for a fighter like Sourav Ganguly. https://t.co/vFs6bjVm97

Ok but what’s Jay Shah got to do with it? Is he going to get you an extension and one for himself at BCCI? Two legendary cricketers, Saurav Ganguly and Jay Shah lol https://t.co/if659pUE14

Sourav was the man who taught us all to have a spine. Sad to see the man totally losing his own spine now, coming across as such a pathetic reflection of his formal upright self.
PS: Jay Shah played well, of course. https://t.co/L5B9MxELV0
