'Jasprit Bumrah won't be able to take my 300kmph smash': Saina Nehwal's fiery reply days after KKR youth's deleted tweet
August 12,2024A month ago, Kolkata Knight Riders' rising sensation, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, took a brutal dig at the ace shuttler Saina Nehwal with a "Jasprit Bumrah" tweet, which he later deleted amid backlash. Albeit not in direct response to that social media reaction, Nehwal came up with a similar and fiery response when asked in a recent interview about how risky the game of cricket is. Nehwal's response came in the wake of a rather heartbreaking performance at the Paris Olympics, where India won six medals—one silver and five bronze—amid six fourth-place finishes, and the 2012 bronze medallist in badminton called for more support and facilities for non-cricket sports.
