This is not just in our old babudom, but also in our shiny overhyped private enterprises. I agree with your sentiment, but in this particular case, whats happening here isn't unlike what happens in USA if board of directors want a popular ceo gone Link to comment

This makes zero sense. I don't think normal cricket fans are polarized like this, their opinions change all the time based on media narrative. Those twitter reply guys are a small portion of total fans nevada 1 Link to comment
Adamant Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 5 minutes ago, Serpico said: Dropping him against his wishes will be pr nightmare for bcci, most fans will take his side. Maybe with these leaks, coupled with his poor form, they're hoping to change the public sentiment Things like these don't move the supporters an inch, the detractors will also remain the same. All these are just shady reports and I am quite sure some of them are totally wrong (the one regarding Kohli asking to remove Rohit as Vc) Bcci is doing this just to create controversies , but this will only lead to problems in the dressing room in t20 WC. They won't achieve anything else from it. Bcci is jeopardizing our t20 WC campaign Link to comment

In case of masses, the loyalty is even higher, on ICF posters might change their opinion about a player but masses do not do that. Once They hail a player and continue to do so. Example - Sanju samson fans, dk fans etc etc. Edited September 19, 2021 by Adamant Link to comment

BCCI is not targeting any die hard fans, they are targeting the majority nevada 1 Link to comment
Sgattick10 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I am no fan of Kohli but these leaks are terrible, he is still our 2 format captain. Respect the position or be man enough to drop him as captain. I have a bad feeling of upcoming T20 WC, we're gonna lose badly. New guy 1 Link to comment

This. Still remember the "India minus kohli = Bangladesh" memes that Kohli PR used to spread around on SM during that 2017-19 phase.

ShoonyaSifar Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) Kohli PR looks to have finally met its match. The whole thing started with Kohli PR's trial balloon of the planted story regarding Kohli stepping down from captaincy. That time it was aimed ay deflecting attention from poor leadership leading to the 5th test cancellation. Since then, Kohli PR has been outsmarted and hasn't yet not been able to control the damage.

adi B Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 It's high time things get exposed and people see what type of characters these players ,particularly the captain are in real . Wt20 win or lose won't depend on this ,anyway we perform badly in this tournament . Important thing is that the truth should come out in the open and not just trampled or sidelined just to show everything is goodie goodie ! nevada and raki05 2 Link to comment

Don't think Kohli is a guy who'll keep quiet just being the test captain after being sacked in 2 formats ,he'll try to make groups ,downplay the others etc raki05 1 Link to comment
