Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) made a big name by dropping Harry Brook from their line-up for the must-win recreation in opposition to Rajasthan Royals (RR) on the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Sunday (May 7). Brook had an uncommon season as he was the primary centurion of the season, scoring a superb knock in opposition to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Eden Gardens. However, aside from that recreation, Brook struggled, amassing simply 63 runs in eight innings, with a low common of seven.88. He had an prolonged run as an opener and a middle-order batter.
Reacting to the information, Virender Sehwag recalled Brook’s previous remark after his century in opposition to KKR and criticized him for participating with trolls. Sehwag suggested Brook not to concentrate to trolls and to keep away from studying feedback on social media, which might have an effect on his mindset.
“Why would you mess with trollers? Why should you even look at who are trolling you or criticising you or praising you? Your work is to come, work hard, perform and leave. If you want to put something on social media, then post it. After posting it don’t look at the comments because that will definitely affect your mind. For that your need to be in your space – watch movies, listen to music, hangout with friends. Social media is not for watching anything, it is only a place for posting updates. Don’t be afraid of them. And if you perform, even those you had trolled or criticised you, will now praise you,” Sehwag advised Cricbuzz.
Brook had obtained criticism from some “Indian fans” after his preliminary poor efficiency, and after his century, he said that he was happy to “shut them up.”

“I was putting pressure on myself a little bit after the first few games. You go on social media and people are calling you rubbish. You start to doubt yourself a little bit. I just went out there with an ‘I don’t care’ mentality tonight and thankfully it came off. There are a lot of Indian fans out there who’ll say ‘well done’ tonight. But they were slagging me off a few days ago. Glad I could shut them up, to be honest,” Brook had mentioned.
