Maheesh Theekshana is a rising off-spinner from Sri Lanka, who has been picked up by Chennai Super Kings for 70 lakh. Tamilan have got offended with this pick and is trending #boycottchennaisuperkings on twitter. One of the Twitter user said, “Maheesh is not only a cricketer but also one of the Sinhalese soldiers, who were responsible for the #tamilgenocide. Remove him. otherwise, we will not allow him to play under csk team.” Another user said,”When you understand Pak players not being allowed in IPL, You should also understand Tamils not wanting SriLankan players in Tamil Nadu.” One more user mentioned,” From the Buddhist country that has an unofficial policy of torturing & killing TN fisherman, raping and torturing SriLankan tamil protestors, and taking away the lands of SL Tamils till date.”
Have a look at other tweets too:
Remove the player from the franchise or Remove the word "Chennai" from your franchise name.
If you feel this boy is more important for you than the emotions of Tamils, you don't need to represent Chennai in IPL. @ChennaiIPL #Boycott_ChennaiSuperKings pic.twitter.com/SpFpU6B3To— பிரியக்குமார் அ (@ProudTamizhan1) February 14, 2022
