Video: KL Rahul Gets Slammed After His Comments on David Warner's Injury Goes Viral 

During a fielding mishap on Sunday's ODI match, Australia batsman David Warner injured himself and was seen limping off the ground in pain at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Currently, he has been ruled out of the remaining white-ball matches between Australia and India.

After Warner was ruled out from rest of the mathes, D'Arcy Short has been named as Warner's replacement for the upcoming T20Is series. So, Warner will be missing the third and final ODI of the series as well as the three-match T20I series.

Meanwhile, during the post-match press conference after India's loss in the second ODI, Indian skipper KL Rahul was asked to share his views on Warner's injury.

Speaking on a lighter note, he said that it will be good for Team India if Warner is out for a long time.

"We don't know how bad his injury is. It would be nicer if he gets injured for a long time. One of their main batsmen. It is not nice to wish it for anyone but it would be good for the team. If his injury takes a long time, it would be good for our team," Rahul had said in the virtual presser.

Soon after his comments went viral, it did not go down well with several fans on social media. Many criticised him for his remarks on Warner's injury while others pointed out the lack of sportsman spirit in Rahul's comments.

So far in the Australia series, Warner was doing great on the field in the first two ODIs. He notched up successive half-centuries to play an instrumental role in helping Australia clinch the series. Looking into his score chart, Warner made 69 runs in the first ODI while in the second match he scored 83 runs. 

Currently, Warner's injury comes as a huge setback for Australia ahead of the three-match T20I series which will begin from December 08.
