Indian women's cricket captain Mithali Raj gave a befitting reply to an online user who trolled her on twitter.


Raj, who led India to the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup finals for the second time in England last month, posted this picture on twitter with fellow cricketers Veda Krishnamurthy, Mamatha Maben and Nooshin al Khadeer and captioned the picture: “What a momentous day today was, standing with these special women!! @MabenMaben @alNooshin @vedakmurthy08”.



The women’s cricketers were inaugurating a cricket centre in Bangalore. an online user had something nasty to notice in the picture and tweeted: “sorry Smt Captain, hahaha odd looking. the fasina wet.” to which, Raj wrote back: “I'm where i m because i sweated it out on d field! i see no reason 2 b ashamed f it, when i’m on d ground inaugurating a cricket academy.”

While the user was abused by many, Krishnamurthy lauded Raj and wrote: “that’s Captain cool. !! always right !! #calmnessatitsbest.”
