Virender Sehwag

Former India cricketer 'trolls' student

Gurmehar Kaur has been receiving threats and abuse after her campaign against a right-wing student union.

But, Sehwag's tweet was directed at an earlier campaign, when she said her father, a soldier who died in Kargil, was killed by war, not Pakistan.

He tweeted a picture of himself holding a sign saying, "I did not score two triple centuries, my bat did."

It has been retweeted more than 20,000 times and received 33,000 "likes" since then, with many, including Bollywood actor Randeep Hooda praising the tweet.
