The Indian cricket team made a great comeback in the 5 test match series against England by defeating the host in the 3rd test match that was played at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, England. Team India needs the similar performance in the remaining two test matches to win the series as England is leading the series by 2-1.
The Indian bowlers were doing their job brilliantly before also; however, the Indian batsmen except skipper Virat Kohli were not fulfilling their responsibilities properly. Nevertheless in the third test match, the batsmen bounced back that resulted in a wonderful victory by 203 runs.
The Indian players also celebrated their victory and comeback in the series but now two Indian cricketers are getting slammed for a photo that they clicked during the celebrations.
Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan shared a photo on his Twitter account in which he can be seen celebrating with his mate Murali Vijay but both of them had a bottle of beer in their hands.
Shikhar Dhawan tweeted the pic with caption, “Celebrating a good victory with a good mate! 🍻 #TeamIndia #ENGvIND”

Twitterati didn’t like the photo as both the cricketers are promoting liquor and that too when they are in the jersey of team India. Some slammed them for posting such photo online as it gives an impression to the youngsters that having alcohol is fine and it is an open secret that Indian youngsters follow cricketers blindly. There were few who preached them about the ill-effects of having liquor while several others asked BCCI to take an action against them.
Here are some reactions:

@BCCI @imVkohli should players be posting pics with alcohol with team t-shirts on? Sends wrong message to youngsters that it's ok to booze.
