The ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 has become a daunting challenge for the England cricket team, finding themselves in the seventh position on the points table after 40 matches. The team's decline in performance has led to continuous trolling by fans.
The pivotal 40th match of the World Cup, held on October 8 in Pune, witnessed a peculiar incident involving a fan holding a poster that read, 'England needs an Indian coach.' This moment caught the attention of viewers when it was showcased on the TV screen.
Reacting to the situation in the commentary box, former captain Eoin Morgan sought the opinion of his teammate Ravi Shastri. In response, the former Indian coach humorously remarked, 'Yes. Call us, he will teach Hindi to all of us.' Speaking in Hindi, the 61-year-old Shastri's witty comment left Morgan puzzled.
