Former Indian cricketer Robin Uthappa recently made his predictions for the upcoming World Cup. However, when confronted by a fan, he denied making any predictions. As a comeback, the fan came up with the proof for the same, which led to the cricketer becoming the target of trolls. It all started when ‘X’ user ‘Johns’ posted about the predictions made by several cricketers. This also included Robin’s prediction. “Uthappa – AUS, NZ, IND, PAK,” read the post. Many other cricketers, including Aaron Finch, Chris Gayle, Gautam Gambhir, Sunil Gavasker, also made their predictions.
