On Monday, 30th October, Virat Kohli fans took to Twitter to express their outrage and frustration by trending #BoycottDainikJagran. The reason behind this digital protest was a controversial article published by Dainik Jagran, one of India's leading Hindi newspapers, that compared Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma's approaches to the game.

The article titled, 'Shatak Par Ravaiyaa alag alag (two different points of view on a century),' compared Kohli's focus on completing centuries with Rohit Sharma's emphasis on big shots. The author of the article praised Rohit Sharma for his approach while seemingly criticizing Kohli's style. This comparison between the former and current Indian cricket team captains did not sit well with Kohli's ardent supporters.

In response, Virat Kohli's fans called for a boycott of Dainik Jagran and even took their protest to the streets, burning copies of the newspaper. Videos of these fiery protests were widely shared on social media, and the hashtag #BoycottDainikJagran began trending.






It's important to note that emotions run high when it comes to cricket in India, and fans are fiercely loyal to their favorite players. Virat Kohli, as a prominent figure in Indian cricket, has an immense fan following, and they take any perceived criticism of their idol very seriously.

As the cricket World Cup continues, the controversy surrounding this article remains a talking point. The Indian team's excellent performance in the tournament, winning all six of their matches so far, adds to the excitement and tension in the cricket-loving nation. The upcoming match against Sri Lanka on 2nd November promises to be a must-watch for fans of the sport.
