Indian tennis diva Sania Mirza, also present at the outing with husband and Pakistan all-rounder Shoaib Malik, was also trolled heavily on social media with some needlessly pulling her into the storm that accompanied Pakistan's 7th successive defeat against India in World Cups.

Some furious fans also took it out on Sania Mirza for Pakistan losing the game. The comments garnered Sania Mirza to react on Twitter. She tweeted saying, "That's the video you shot without asking us,disrespecting our privacy even though we had a child with us?& got told off for doing so,& u came up with this crap?FYI 'outing' was dinner & yes ppl are allowed to eat if they lose a match!Bunch of fools!Try better content nxt time.

This is not the first time Sania has been dragged into a controversy related to the Pakistan team. Before the India vs Pakistan game, Mirza had slammed cringeworthy ads on both sides of the border'.

Pakistan required 136 runs off just 30 balls, and the team fell short by 89 runs. As per reports, India now has a 7-0 record against Pakistan in the 50-over World Cup.
