India ICT Champion: BJP trolls Congress with Pushpa template memes, netizens slam Congress Spokesperson for fat-shaming Rohit Sharma

Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma let his bat do the talking in the Champions Trophy final against New Zealand, delivering a match-winning 76-run knock and leading India to its third Champions Trophy victory. However, this innings was more than just a cricketing masterclass, it was also a powerful response to Congress spokesperson Shama Mohamed, who had recently body-shamed the star cricketer. A few days prior to the final, Shama Mohamed took an unwarranted dig at Rohit Sharma, calling him “fat for a sportsperson” and even questioning his leadership abilities. Her remarks sparked public outrage, with netizens and cricket fans coming to Rohit Sharma’s defense. Despite the backlash, the Congress spokesperson remained unapologetic, attempting to justify her comments. The Congress party, in a desperate attempt to control the damage, distanced itself from her remarks, but by then, the damage had already been done.

It is always said for a cricketer that the best way to silence haters is to reply them with bat and the Indian cricket team did the same. Rohit Sharma chose to reply in the best way possible on the field. In the high-stakes final, he played a captain’s knock, scoring 76 runs against a formidable New Zealand bowling attack. His innings was crucial in securing India’s title victory and proving that fitness in sports is not just about looks but about performance and resilience. As Rohit Sharma smashed fours and sixes, social media erupted with praise, highlighting how he had answered criticism with his bat. His remarkable innings not only won India the trophy but also silenced his critics in the most emphatic manner.

Following India’s triumph, Shama Mohamed, who had earlier ridiculed Rohit Sharma, was forced to backtrack, taking to Twitter to praise his performance. However, netizens were quick to remind her of her previous derogatory remarks, calling her out for hypocrisy. The backlash was swift, with users sharing screenshots of her earlier tweet alongside her newfound praise for the Indian captain. The BJP also seized the moment, mocking the Congress party through memes and posts, showcasing how Rohit Sharma “smashed” Congress’s narrative with his stellar performance in the final. Rohit Sharma’s innings in the Champions Trophy final was a lesson in grace, resilience, and sportsmanship. While critics attempted to bring him down, he chose to rise above negativity, letting his performance speak for itself.
