Former India cricketers Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh, and Suresh Raina have landed themselves in trouble days after winning the World Championship Of Legends 2024. 

On July 13, India Champions beat Pakistan Champions in the final to win the WCL 2024. After the win, the players celebrated by joining the trend and made a dance reel on the viral 'Tauba Tauba' track. 

However, the players did not copy the exact steps but made their own version showing the state of their bodies by playing cricket at this age.

While the video was loved and enjoyed by many, the dance did not go well with the paralympic committee who felt that the veteran players insulted the disabled people of this country. 

"Hopefully you will delete your Instagram video which is making fun of 1.2 billion disabled people in the world," wrote para-swimmer Shams Salam.

Paralympic India too reacted to the post, calling out their "disgusting and insensitive" behaviour in a scathing response. 

 “Behavior is disgusting & insensitive. Star celebrity cricket players have a responsibility to set a positive example. But mimicking the movements of individuals with disabilities, using derogatory gestures & making fun of their physical limitations. Mocking disabilities is not just a joke - it is a form of discrimination. It is time for them to apologize for their actions.”


Yuvraj Singh led the India Champions in the tournament but in the finals, Ambati Rayudu starred with the bat as he won the player of the match award for his half-century.
