What is the whole matter?

In fact, recently star shooter and two-medal winner of Paris Olympics Manu Bhaker had attended the 75th foundation ceremony of the National Association of India in Delhi. During this, journalists asked him questions about the performance and future of 15-year-old star batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi. On this, Manu gave a balanced answer and said that talent has no age and any player can become great if he gets the right mentorship. He further said that if Vaibhav gets the right guidance, he will definitely become the next big star.

There was an uproar on social media

People say that the popularity and passion for cricket is so much in India that even legends of other sports are being forced to talk about cricket. Many people have considered it an insult to Manu Bhaker.

Users are reacting

Social media users are reacting sharply on this entire matter. One user wrote, why question an Olympic medalist on cricket? This is an insult to sports. Have you ever asked a cricketer for his opinion about a player from another sport?

Another user said, I wish that cricket should end in India, because only then other sports will get respect and popularity. I am a fan of cricket myself, but I do not accept the demise of other sports because of cricket.
