Here's Azharuddin's Tweet:

This expression and tweet from Azharuddin didn’t go well with the Indian fans and they lashed out at the former Indian skipper. Fans criticized him for being harsh more than required.

Along with lashing out at Azharuddin, the fans also lashed out at the board of control for cricket in India (BCCI) for not organizing women’s IPL where their potential can be tested to be ready for such kind of pressure situations.

Although, the Indian Cricket Board has announced recently organizing the women’s IPL next year. It depends on how much this announcement comes in real on the ground.
