Star Sports has come under the scanner quite a few times in the ongoing Indian Premier League.

New Delhi: ‘SHAME ON STAR SPORTS’ started trending on social media after India captain Rohit Sharma lashed out at the Indian Premier League’s (IPL) official broadcasters for breaching his privacy. Taking to social media platform ‘X’ Rohit on Sunday, stated that despite his request, Star Sports went ahead to record him and played it on-air which directly speaks about privacy breach.

“The lives of cricketers have become so intrusive that cameras are now recording every step and conversation we are having in privacy with our friends and colleagues, at training or on match days,” Rohit said in his post.

“Despite asking Star Sports to not record my conversation, it was and was also then played on air, which is a breach of privacy. The need to get exclusive content and focused only on views and engagement will one day break the trust between the fans, cricketers and cricket. Let better sense prevail,” he added.
