New Delhi: Team India’s former star opener Virender Sehwag took to Twitter to suggest out-of-favor Wriddhiman Saha to expose identity of journalist who took a disrespectful tone after the former refused to give an interview to him.
Huge controversy erupted after Saha shared a private conversation with the journalist. Several media reports suggested that BCCI will ask the wicket-keeper batter to reveal the name of journalist who threatened him. However, Saha in his latest Tweet said he will not be revealing the details of the scribe to the apex board.
1/3- I was hurt and offended. I thought not to tolerate such kind of behavior and didn’t want anyone to go through these kind of bullying. I decided I will go out and expose the chat in public eye, but not his/her name

3/3- I thank each and everyone who has shown support and extended their willingness to help. My gratitude.

“Dear Wriddhi, it’s not your nature to harm others and you are a wonderful guy. But to prevent such harm from happening to anyone else in the future , it’s important for you to name him. Gehri saans le, aur naam bol daal (Take) deep breathe and reveal his name),” Sehwag said in his tweet.x
