Former India spinner turned commentator Murali Kartik has landed himself in yet another controversy on day 2 of the one-off Test between Indian women and South African women at the Chepauk Stadium in Chennai. 

Kartik made a big blunder on day 2 when he was on-air after he referred to Indian player 'Richa Ghosh' as 'Richa Chadha', who is a famous Bollywood actress.

Not only once, but the former left-arm spinner repeated his error within a span of 10 seconds, and it did not go well with the fans. The viewers were hurt by the disrespect shown towards Ghosh and took to Twitter to slam Karthik. 

It is not the first time that Murali Karthik has mistaken a player for somebody else. Even during an IPL season, he referred to Varun Chakravarthy as Sunil Narine during the post-match presentation.  " Sunil Narine is the Player Of The Match, Sunil how are you feeling? Oh sorry, Varun," remarked Kartik during the infamous post-match presentation. 

Talking about the game, India are in the driver's seat against South Africa, as after the end of play, South Africa are 236/4 and trail by 367 runs.
