‘Don't Spread Fake News’ Navjot Singh Sidhu Slams X User for Spreading His Fake Quote Asking BCCI To Remove Gautam Gambhir, Ajit Agarkar and Giving Rohit Sharma Captaincy (See Post)
The former cricketer exposed the social media user and criticised him spreading a quote that was wrongly attributed to him. There have been a lot of conversation on Rohit Sharma, who is retired from Tests and T20Is, being replaced by Shubman Gill as Team India's new ODI captain before the IND vs AUS 2025 ODI series.
Navjot Singh Sidhu hit out a user on X for spreading a fake quote of him asking the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) to remove Team India chief selector Ajit Agarkar and head coach Gautam Gambhir from their respective positions and handing over the captaincy to Rohit Sharma. The cricketer-turned-commentator took to X to flag the fake quote that was being attributed to his name. The fake quote claimed that Navjot Singh Sidhu asked the BCCI to remove both Gautam Gambhir and Ajit Agarkar if India were to win the 2027 World Cup and give the captaincy back to Rohit Sharma, again, 'with full respect'. Reacting to the viral fake quote attributed to him, Navjot Singh Sidhu slammed the X user, writing, "Never said it, don't spread fake news, never imagined it. Shame on you."
