Bangladesh Daily Ridicules Team India with Half-Bald Dhoni-Kohli Caricature

After Bangladesh recently scored a historic 2-1 ODI series win against India at home, a section of the local media is seemingly having some fun at the cost of MS Dhoni's team. A caricature in a leading Bangladesh daily - Prothom Alo -- shows top Indian players, including MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli, with their head half shaven and under the towering presence of Mustafizur Rahman, the rookie pacer who single-handedly wrecked Indian batting. The caricature, advertising stationery goods, shows Mustafizur with a cutter, the delivery that fetched him a record 13 wickets. The photo-shopped image has been published in the paper's humour magazine section - Rosh Alo - on June 29. But the satire, mocking India's abject failure, failed to evoke the response it probably desired as several local fans criticized the post in the paper's Facebook edition, calling it "unceremonious" and "betraying Bangladeshi culture".   NDTV
