'White T-shirts marked with black lines, written MS' number and Thala': Ex-RCB and CSK player slams fans hostility

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) enjoy a massive fanfare across the nation. However, at times it has turn ugly, something which Robin Uthappa, who has previously represented both franchises, highlighted on his YouTube channel.

From heckling a woman to fans getting into scuffle, Uthappa called out the hostile acts that he observed recently. "It was pretty intense, Outside the stadium, they were mocking the team, the players of the team when the bus was leaving, that was one thing that I saw, which I thought was in bad taste. The other one that I saw were the fans fighting with each other. I saw women being heckled, which felt unsavory, to be very honest. We saw that even in Chennai last year, again, uncalled for. It's not on whatsoever," Uthappa said on his YouTube channel.

The ex-cricketer also pointed another incident of RCB fans holding white T-shirts with black stripes, making a reference to CSK's two-year ban and dragging legendary cricketer MS Dhoni in it. He said all these acts are "concerning", and urged people to understand that this is just a sport.
