Virat Kohli gets heavily TROLLED for his 'leave India' remark to critic

New Delhi: Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli found himself ensnared in a controversy after he rebuked a critic to leave India. The viral video of the skipper venting out his displeasure for the social media user who thought Kohli was ‘overrated’ has not gone down well with the Twitterati who trolled Kohli left and right for his insensitive remark. In a video available on his newly released app, Kohli was reading out tweets and Instagram messages when he came across a user who said that he had nothing special in his batting. The user had commented: “Over-rated batsman and personally I see nothing special in his batting. I enjoy watching English and Australian batsmen more than these Indians." Responding to his message, Kohli said : “Okay, I don't think you should live in India then you should go and live somewhere else, no? Why are you living in our country and loving other countries? I don't mind you not liking me but I don't think you should live in our country and like other things. Get your priorities right.” The remarks of the Indian skipper infuriated the netizens who slammed him in return.

It’s hard to compare a doctor & a cricketer ... With due to respect to my fellow clinicians & surgeons, I think Cricketers who represent our country at national level,have a larger pressure than us. Anyway #kohli doesn’t understand these things ..so no point talking anoint it

I expect there will be no foreign players in #IPL or at least in #RCB or in #FCGoa in #ISL . Mr #Kohli should ensure it. @imVkohli

Can we stop making heroes out of sportsmen and actors and then be disappointed when they don’t live up to it. We haven’t chosen them to be our thought leaders.  #kohli #leavethecountryifuloveotherplayers

.@imVkohli You should know only a few countries play cricket and you are absolutely nothing in the rest of the world. Be grateful you were born in India & respect your fellow citizens. Be humble & respectful! #Kohli

@sachin_rt got standing ovation in Australia whenever he walked in or out during last phase of his career... They all were not Indians... Rather than raising our voice against criticism, one should focus on improvement. (Nindak niyare rakhiye...)#Kohli has to learn a lot...
