Mumbai: Former India spinner Pragyan Ojha expressed his disappointment on Twitter after Virender Sehwag was forced to issue an explanation over his lighthearted comments about Kolkata Knight Riders’ win over Mumbai Indians on Wednesday night in IPL 2022. Ojha wrote that there was something wrong with the sporting ecosystem as a legend like Sehwag had to give an explanation for his views.
There is something really wrong with our ecosystem when a legend of the game has to give explanation for his views about a game because of some faceless trolls. #sad https://t.co/vuZZXO6rHF

The former India opener had faced flak from trolls for his ‘Vada Pav’ tweet which he posted after Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) defeated Mumbai Indians (MI) thanks to Pat Cummins’ belligerent innings. Sehwag, in his own witty fashion, remarked “Moonh se nivala cheen liya ,, sorry vada pav cheen liya. Pat Cummins, one of the most insane displays of clean hitting , 15 ball 56 … Jeera Batti,” after Pat Cummins played a stupendous knock of 56 runs off 15 balls to help his team script a memorable win on Wednesday.
The Vada Pav reference is for Mumbai, a city which thrives on Vada Pav. Rohit fans thanda lo , I am a bigger fan of his batting much more than most of you guys.
