The Indian cricket team is under heavy criticism for their poor performance in the second test match against England, not to forget that India is already trailing in the series by 0-1.
However, now the BCCI and team India have come under fire because of a tweet made by the BCCI. The Indian cricket organisation posted a menu for lunch for team India with caption,
“A well-earned Lunch for #TeamIndia. You prefer? #ENGvIND”

The inclusion of a dish that is made of beef hasn’t gone well with many of the Twitter users while some of them are saying that despite eating so much, they are not playing well. Twitterati has slammed BCCI for including beef in the menu and sharing it with proud on social media.
There have been many incidents in the country in the recent past in which people have been beaten mercilessly because they were suspected to possess cow meat. The opposition has also been talking a lot about this matter and is trying to create an embarrassing situation for the government on this.
As Hindus gave the status of mother to a cow, the Twitter users found it offending that the Indian team is being served beef for lunch.
Here are some reactions:

बीफ़ खाओगे तो ऐसे ही खेल पाओगे,
तुम लोग ही देश के युवाओं को गुमराह करते हो, ओर बीफ़ खाने के लिये प्रेरित….

ये क्रिकेटर हैं ,इनका भारतीयता या हिन्दुत्व से कोई लेना देना नहीं है, ये राष्ट्रप्रेमी नहीं नोट प्रेमी होते हैं इनका ईमान, धर्म सबकुछ रूपया ही है, देश की जनता ही पागल है जो इनको सर पर बिठाये घूमती है,इन सालों के लिए पागल रहती है,इनको भगवान बना लेती है॥
