When it comes to social media, unsuspecting troll victims emerge every day. Because even a simple thing, such as a photo, can lead to incessant trolling.
Something that actor Anushka Sharma recently encountered, when BCCI posted a photo of her with Team India, meeting the High Commission of India in London.

While it makes for a good photo, the Twitterverse immediately erupted with trolls asking what exactly was Anushka Sharma doing in a ‘Team India’ picture?
Anushka Sharma is the first lady of Indian cricket team. 😂
BCCI is justified in featuring her in the “team India members ” picture. 😂— Ovais Wani (@Ovais_) August 8, 2018

Very unprofessional @BCCI. This doesn’t look sound. Where is the Vice Caption hidden? Who is anushka Sharma in Indian Cricket. Why is she given this position? She is a celebrity doesn’t mean she hold more imprtance than a Vice caption of the cricket team! Any answers @BCCI

Amazing. Vice captain in last row (actually not clearly in seen in the photo itself) and middle of attraction is someone else. By the way where are other players wives then.
— Shaik Dawood (@iamshaikdawood) August 7, 2018
No Hard feelings but I heard recently BCCI denied players from having their wives around when on tour in England. WTH is Anushka doing among Indian team?? Rules are meant for Team and captain should lead from front in every aspect. Just saying

Is captain wife more important than vice captain? Where are other players wife’s? Don’t divide team for the sake of captain or Bollywood please

So I guess all other members are bachelors…
