Angkrish Raghuvanshi, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) star, has apologised after on social media after he made a remark on Saina Nehwal’s comment about cricket being a more skill-based game rather than stamina. The 20-year-old clarified that while he had initially meant it as a joke, he realised his mistake later calling his act an immature one.<\/p>\n

Notably, while expressing her views on a podcast with Nikhil Sharma, Nehwal said that she is not too pleased with cricket much more attention that several other physically demanding sport.<\/p>\n

“Sometimes, I feel bad that cricket gets all the attention. The thing about cricket is… if you see badminton, basketball, tennis, and other sports are so tough physically. You don’t even have time to pick up the shuttle and serve, you are like… you are breathing so hard. A game like cricket gets so much of attention where I personally believe skill is more important,” she said on the podcast.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the shuttler’s remark on the sport, Raghuvanshi had mocked Nehwal by writing that he wishes to see what would Saina do if she was up against Jasprit Bumrah bowling quick bouncers at her. Even though he later deleted that post, by that time fans had already taken a screenshot.<\/p>\n
