'All Upset' Ben Stokes Shares Screenshot of 'Ugly' Trolls on Instagram; All-Rounder Calls Out Hater!

Social media has been considered to be both boon and bane for not just a famous star or celebrity but also a cricketer. Social media can sometimes be a vile platform where anyone could target anybody for any reason whatsoever.  

Recently, England’s superstar Ben Stokes experienced a series of abusive messages, after which he shared a screenshot of the messages sent by user @uzi1248 on his official Instagram account. 

Stokes posted the photo saying, “Some of the stuff you get sent” on top of the picture. The abuser not only wished ill for Ben but also for his parents which was totally disturbing and disgusting. Stokes did not just ridiculed the hater but exposed him to his 1.3 million followers.

In a series of messages, the hater told Stokes; he hopes that his (Ben Stokes) parents get diagnosed with aids before telling him to jump off a building in order to get paralyzed. The hater then went on to call Ben a traitor and wished him to get robbed and die with his whole family.

Currently, Ben Stokes is in New Zealand with his ailing father, who was diagnosed with brain cancer. Ben had left for Christchurch in the middle of the Test series against Pakistan last month.

As per the IPL 2020 plan, Stokes has missed the first few matches of the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League. However, he is expected to join his IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals (RR) maybe in the middle of the league.
