Netizens Applaud Dhawan, India Legends For Refusing To Play Pakistan In WCL
Days before the highly anticipated semifinal clash between India and Pakistan, Dhawan, when asked whether he would play, responded with measured intensity: "You shouldn’t have asked this. And even if I didn’t play earlier, I still won’t play now."
These were a reaffirmation of a decision he had officially communicated to the organisers as early as May 11. Citing the emotional aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, Dhawan made it clear he would not step onto the field against Pakistan. And in an extraordinary show of solidarity, the rest of the India Legends squad — led by captain Yuvraj Singh and comprising cricketing greats like Harbhajan Singh, Irfan Pathan, Suresh Raina, and Yusuf Pathan — stood united in boycotting the match, choosing principle over participation.
