"That Body Weight...": On 'Rohit Sharma Is Fat' Comment By Shama Mohamed, Ex-Star's Blunt Take

Former cricketer Surinder Khanna backed India captain Rohit Sharma and said the opening batter has scored plenty of runs with that body weight after a Congress leader called him "fat" on social media. Congress spokesperson Shama Mohamed made the controversial remark during India's Champions Trophy 2025 final Group A match against New Zealand in Dubai on Sunday. Taking to X, she openly referred to the Indian skipper as "fat." “Rohit Sharma is fat for a sportsman! Need to lose weight! And of course, the most unimpressive Captain India has ever had,” Shama wrote in a post on X, which she later deleted following a backlash. Reacting to that, Khanna called such comments "stupid" and said Rohit has a different body type, which has not changed much throughout his career. The veteran also added that one should refrain from such comments and should respect the Indian team skipper.

Even the show of the hosts lashed out at the selectors, saying that Pakistan's fate was decided the same their squad was announced.

"Difficult To Read His Hand": Axar Patel Hails Varun Chakaravarthy's Mental Skills

Spin bowling all-rounder Axar Patel lavished praises on mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy for his maiden five-wicket haul in ODIs in India's 44-run over New Zealand in the last Champions Trophy Group A game in Dubai, saying it is really difficult to read the spinner's mind, and if a batter misses his googly, there is a high chance of losing a wicket. New Zealand's bowlers did well to restrict India's batting line-up, with Shreyas Iyer (79) and Hardik Pandya (45) leading the way as the Asian side posted a competitive total of 249/9 after they were sent in to bat first.
