Orange jersey is to blame for India's loss against England : Mehbooba Mufti
Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti Sunday said the Indian cricket team's new orange jersey is to be blamed for the team'sloss against England in the ongoing World Cup tournament on Sunday.
SRINAGAR: "Call me superstitious but I'd say it's the jersey that ended India's winning streak in the #ICCWorldCup2019," the leader tweeted.
She quickly defended her stance after receiving many tweets against her favor. "My tweet about India's performance (all in good humour) got more traction than a BJP leader asking Hindus to gangrape Muslim women. Are such appalling statements intentionally being brushed under the rug? An innocuous tweet evokes strong reactions but why no outrage against this," she tweeted.
Based on International Cricket Council's home and away rule, the Indian Team had orange as their second jersey colour.
