Hyderabad's star batsman, Harry Brook, made headlines in the cricketing world after scoring a century against Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. However, his post-match comments about Indian fans have sparked a heated debate on social media.

Brook, a talented batsman from England, slammed the first century of IPL 2023 with just 55 balls. However, he faced criticism from Indian fans earlier in the tournament. In response, Brook said, “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.”

While Brook's comments were aimed at shutting down his critics, they have been interpreted as arrogant by some fans. He was bought by SRH for a massive Rs 13.25 crore but had a slow start in the tournament, which led to high expectations from fans.

Fans divided over Brook's statement

The statement made by Brook has divided fans and sports lovers on Twitter. Some users have criticized him for his lack of humility, while others have supported him, saying that he was just speaking his mind.

One user commented, “Big zero on humility. This guy won’t be a legend for sure!” Another user wrote, “Nobody is immune to criticism lol. You were bought for a heavy amount, you gotta perform. Now, better score runs in upcoming matches too after giving such statements.”

In contrast, some fans have supported Brook, saying that he has the right to express his opinions. One user wrote, “That’s what happens when you are confident about your skills. You don’t have to dance on the reels of their songs to impress.”

Overall, Brook's comments have ignited a debate about sportsmanship and humility. While it's important for athletes to have confidence in their abilities, they must also show humility and respect towards their fans. As the IPL 2023 continues, it remains to be seen how Brook will perform on the field and whether he can win over his critics with his cricketing skills.
