In the video, when Team India players enter the hotel, Mohammad Siraj and Umran Malik refuse to apply Tilak. Not only this, the team’s batting coach Vikram Rathor and support staff member Hari Prasad Mohan also nod to Tilak Lagwan. Now there is a ruckus about this. Some people are trying to give it a religious form. People say that Umran Malik and Siraj are staunch towards their religion and they cannot even get Swagat Tilak applied. However, it is worth noting that the viral video is not complete. Vikram Rathore has not been shown in many videos.
When the full video surfaced, people started trolling the names of Vikram Rathore and Hari apart from Umran Malik and Mohammad Siraj. In response to this, some people have shared videos of deadly bowling of Siraj and Umran, in which both these players are seen taking wickets for the national team. While Siraj is the number one bowler in the world in ODIs, on the other hand, Umran Malik is a rising star.
Head coach Rahul Dravid and captain Rohit Sharma are also seen in the video, who are seen getting Tilak applied. Well, now when the Indian team is busy preparing for a big series, then such a controversy can be fatal for the team. Fans should also keep this in mind and keep themselves away from such debates.
