Rohit chose to avoid the question as BCCI guidelines do not allow players to engage with trolls, as it would only add fuel to the fire.
I am totally clueless about chanting Jai Shri Ram for Shami:-
Rohit Sharma said, “I am absolutely clueless about the chanting of Jai Shri Ram for Shami. I have heard it for the first time only. I don’t know what happened there.”
“We do not engage with trolls, and engaging with them will only encourage them. An official said the platforms have already removed many such comments.
The BCCI made this statement when Shami faced the wrath of fans due to his dismal performance against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup.
Kohli also remained silent on this matter:-
At that time, the then captain Virat Kohli had also remained silent on this matter and now Rohit also avoided the question of chanting Jai Shri Ram by targeting Shami.
The matter is likely to be dealt with by the GCA as there is no place for such behavior in the game.
