Cricketers Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul’s Koffee With Karan debut is making headlines, and not for the right reasons.The duo appeared on the sixth season of the hit talk show, wherein they were asked to choose the better batsman among Indian skipper Virat Kohli and master blaster Sachin Tendulkar. Both Rahul and Pandya chose Virat over Sachin, which has irked fans of the veteran cricketer. A number of Twitter users have chided the cricketing duo for it.“Sachin is the greatest batsmen of all time -said by Don Bradman, Viv Richards, Sunil Gavaskar, Brett Lee, Wasim Akram, David Ganguly.......and many more. Kohli > Sachin said by ‘KL Rahul ‘ and ‘Hardik Pandya’ .....Every true cricket fan knows who is best!” said one Twitter user.An angry Sachin fan tweeted “ I mean, are you guys who say Virat is better than Sachin really cricket fans or mere accountants? B***** one straight drive by Sachin is more beautiful and valuable than any shot ever hit by Virat”A Twitter user even pulled out statistics to supplement the comparison between Sachin and Virat. A stand-up comedian wrote “ Don’t get offended if Pandya & Rahul said Virat is better batsman than Sachin - jinko batting aati hi nahi, unka kya pta (if someone does not know how to bat, what do they know).”“Sachin Sabka baap hai!! (Sachin is the greatest of all) #haqSeSingle #KoffeeWithKaranSeason6,” wrote another comedian. Check out more reactions: #HardikPandya n #KLRahulFools they are.No doubt #Virat is a good player but #Sachin is always on top on any day. No one can match or can reach Sachin🙏🏻#KoffeeWithKaran #KoffeeWithCricketers https://t.co/njOEjnlcNy— Shruti (@proud_2beIndian) January 7, 2019 Sachin is second to none. He's the GOD. He's an emotion. Bigger than Cricket. The undisputed no.1 GOAT!That's it. That's the tweet.#KoffeeWithKaran #KoffeeWithCricketers— R I D D H I T (@Nadan_Parindey_) January 6, 2019 Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul on #KoffeeWithKaran happened to be the most cringe-worthy episode. #KoffeeWithCricketers was pure SH*T in a coffee mug.— Anoop Tomer (@anooptomer) January 7, 2019 #KoffeeWithCricketers #Koffeewithkaran@klrahul11 : Virat is better than sachin.Other Team members : pic.twitter.com/FBAEshvnji— SherLock🕵🏻‍♂️ (@_GreenManGoMore) January 6, 2019 #SachinTendulkar to #HardikPandya right now...#KoffeeWithKaran #KoffeeWithCricketers pic.twitter.com/OpOwnO6Qfn— Bonkers 😎 (@rahulkpopat) January 6, 2019 Watched #KoffeeWithCricketers And I must say #HardikPandya is one pathetic, over-rated guy. He tries too much to be cool but he is not at all. Neither he is good looking nor a good human being.On the other hand @klrahul11Is a true gentleman.— vinay pandey (@feelvinay) January 6, 2019Hardik’s womanising ways also didn’t sit well with many. “#KoffeeWithCricketers pandya came across as the Kim K of cricket world... Boasting of ‘conquests’ and possessions like a Desperado... The line of his family asking him how many women and him pointing out to them like a trophies is so sick ... Grow up Pandya !,” wrote a Twitter user. To say the least #HardikPandya is horrendous a misogynist prsn who doesn't feel the odr gndr has emotions @BCCI do u want these guys to take crkt forward.It's so obnoxious that it's hard to watch him for an hour though @klrahul11 was nice..#KoffeeWithCricketers #KoffeeWithKaran— Girraj shrivastava (@Suyash1221) January 7, 2019 #KoffeeWithCricketers was just the worst episode. What's up with all the #misogyny . Tired of this boys will be boys attitude. @klrahul11 @hardikpandya7 #KoffeeWithKaran— Ekta Chauhan (@ekta2993) January 7, 2019 There are so many things fundamentally wrong about this episode and their attitudes, but people are only bothered about the whole Sachin-Virat situation. 🤷 #KoffeeWithCricketers— MSD7782 (@msd7782) January 6, 2019 #KoffeeWithCricketers Hardik Pandya should be dropped. He thinks he's West Indian. Some people cant handle money and fame. Sick.— pranit malik (@pranitmalik) January 6, 2019 The sixth season of Koffee With Karan has already seen some dynamic pairings on the chat show, including Alia Bhatt and Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh and Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan and daughter Sara Ali Khan, Arjun Kapoor and Janhvi Kapoor and Katrina Kaif and Varun Dhawan.In the next episode, Karan Johar will host Shahid Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter as they make their first appearance together on the popular talk show.(With inputs from ANI)
