Glenn Maxwell’s Indian origin wife Vini Raman hits back after being trolled

Following India’s six wicket loss against Australia in the final of the recently-concluded ICC ODI World Cup 2023, Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell’s Indian wife Vini Raman had to endure a barrage of nasty remarks and abuse.

However, Vini finally mustered the courage to bravely address the onslaught of social media trolls.

Taking to her Instagram account, Vini revealed the extent of the brutal trolling she faced merely for supporting her husband’s team. Accused of an anti-India stance, she pleaded with cricket fans not to misconstrue her cricketing inclinations. Moreover, she urged them to redirect their energy toward more pressing global issues.

Vini also emphasized that it is perfectly acceptable for her to be of Indian origin and still support the country where she was raised from childhood, especially one for which her husband proudly plays.

Notably, it’s not the first time that the families of opposition players have been unfairly targeted by fans in the subcontinent, demanding careful monitoring and implementation of stringent laws.

While social media has undoubtedly brought fans closer to their favorite cricketers, it has also attracted a segment of naysayers and serial abusers who target players and their families without any significant reason.
