On 4th September 2022 everyone was glued to their screens watching the India Pakistan match.
The 18th over, was bowled by Ravi Bishnoi, with Khushdil Shah and Asif Ali on the crease.
On the third delivery, Asif Ali played a sweep shot, and the ball went into the air and looked like an easy catch for Arshdeep Singh.
However Arshdeep lost the ball leaving skipper Rohit Sharma, the spectators and the viewers frustrated.
The Pakistani batsmen's belligerant shots secured their victory.
In a rage of fury, people blamed Arshdeep for the India's loss.
He was badly trolled and mocked on social media for missing the catch.
Do you know that Wikipedia provides information on celebs like their height, age, family, background, etc.
You can find information on cricketer, politicians, businessmen, etc.
This information can be edited. False info can be removed and the right info can be added.
A user replaced the words "India" with "Khalistan" at several locations on Arshdeep's profile.
The Khalistan movement is a Sikh separatist movement seeking to turn Punjab into a sovereign state.
15 minutes after the changes were made people blamed for purposely losing the match for the Khalistan cause.
The Indian government was outraged by the incident and these changes were undone by Wikipedia.
The government found this unacceptable. This could have put Arshdeep's family in danger & harrassment.
This is all because of the miscreants. This is why Ministry of Electronics & IT today summoned the executives
to talk about how this can be prevented in the future. Such pranks can lead to deaths & harrassment.
A panel will be created to solve the issue.
Virat Kohli said that though Arshdeep dropped the catch he is still a strong part of the Indian team.
The drop was a mistake. When we take a step that leads to a mistake, the next step is towards learning.
That is how we go ahead in life.
Instead of trolling we must support him.
Mohammed Shami has said, these trolls are spreading hate through fake accounts.
Shami said such people are eunuch for making such trolls. If they have guts they must openly say everything.
Shami supports Arshdeep and many fans supported him as well.
Also recently, Virat Kohli has revealed that Mahendra Singh Dhoni was the only person who ‘messaged’ him after he unexpectedly stepped down as Test captain.
Dhoni was the one who messaged Kohli and motivated Kohli and told him to perserve for the future.
Virat felt very good to see Dhoni's message.
