Australia's Glenn Maxwell and Dan Christian on Tuesday slammed online abusers following Royal Challengers Bangalore's unceremonious exit from the Indian Premier League.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Maxwell and Christian are a part of the star-studded RCB -- captained by India's captain Virat Kohli -- which crashed out of the cash-rich tournament on Monday after losing to the Kolkata Knight Riders.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"Some of the garbage that has been flowing on social media is absolutely disgusting!," Maxwell tweeted, calling the online abusers "horrible people" and their behaviour "unacceptable".<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We are human beings who are giving our best each and every day. Try being a decent person maybe instead of spreading abuse," he added as he thanked the team's "REAL fans" for their support.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Christian, 38, was clobbered three sixes in an over by KKR's Sunil Narine who also starred with the ball, bagging four wickets off four overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Earlier, Christian scored nine runs off eight balls. The 32-year-old Maxwell scored 15.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Fans took to social media to vent their anger soon after the game, even targeting Christian's pregnant partner on her Instagram page.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"I didn't have a great game tonight, but that's sport. However please leave her out of it," he posted on Instagram.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Superstar Kohli and his Bollywood actress wife Anushka Sharma have also been targeted by trolls in the past over the batter's on-field performances.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
