Bangladeshi newspaper mocks Team India with objectionable photograph

Hyderabad, June 30: In a very bad taste, a leading Bangladesh daily newspaper, Prothom Alo, published an advertisement showing Indian players, including Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli, with half shaven heads.

This has upset India cricket fans. It may be noted that Bangladesh beat India 2-1 in a recently held ODI series.

The photo of the Indian players was displayed under the photo of Bangla's rookie speedster Mustafizur Rahman.

The advertisement is about stationery goods and it shows Mustafizur with a cutter. It may be recalled that the bowler had destroyed Indian batting line up with his half cutters.

The advertisement, which was mocking India's failure, is evoking sharp criticism from Indian cricket fans and it has gone viral on the Internet.

The said photograph has gone viral in the social media site and has attracted huge attention from its viewers.

It has been reported that the said photograph has garnered over 4,000 likes, 250 comments and 350 shares
