England’s Ben Duckett Trolled for Calling Virat Kohli’s RCB a ‘joke’

Written by Abhishek Patil

England Cricketer Ben Duckett has been on the receiving end of the anger of Indian cricket fans after he called Virat Kohli led IPL side Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) a ‘joke’ on social media.

While Duckett’s intention was not to make fun of the team, his tweet was misinterpreted by several Indian fans who launched an attack on Duckett’s credentials as a player and even attacked the England cricket team.

Duckett’s tweet came out during RCB’s opening match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Sunday night, a game in which the cricket fraternity witnessed batting maestros such as Kohli, Brendon McCullum, AB de Villiers and Quinton de Kock occupying the top four spots.

“RCB’s team is a joke 😰😰 #IPL” he posted on his twitter handle.

However, Little did the England left-handed batsman, who had to return home from last year’s Ashes tour after throwing alcohol during a party at team’s senior player James Anderson, realise that it would not go down too well with the Indian fans.

“Just like your eng career!” a RCB fan replied.

“Very similar to your batting against spin bowling 😂” another fan replied.
