As a young man, Rishi Kapoor made ladies swoon with his nonchalance and charm. As an old man however, he keeps on making everyone, including his own family members, cringe. His tweets are completely out of hand at times and on Sunday, during the Women's World Cup final, he completely lost it when he put out a tweet about the Indian woman team that is gross by all standards. Even as the rest of the nation was cheering the team, Rishi Kapoor put out a tweet urging captain Mithali raj to do something which is rather demeaning to the game.
He wrote on Twitter: "Waiting for a repeat of Sourav Ganguly's act on the balcony of The Lords Ground,London,when India beat England 2002 NatWest series final! YO" Say what you, will this is beyond all norms of funny.

Veteran pacer Jhulan Goswami came out with a stupendous bowling performance as India restricted England to 228 in the ICC Women's World Cup final at The Lord's on Sunday. Electing to bat, England had a decent start with their openers Lauren Winfield (24) and Tammy Beaumont (23) putting on 4 runs for the first wicket. However, spinner Rajeshwari Gayakwad broke the partnership taking the wicket of Winfield, following which two more wickets fell and the hosts were suddenly reeling at 63-3.
However, wicketkeeper-batswoman Sarah Taylor (45) and Natalie Sciver (51) stayed long at the crease and help their team past 200. Katherine Brunt (34) and Jenny Gunn (25*) played little cameos towards the end of the innings and help their team post a total which can be considered as par on a slow Lord?s wicket. Goswami, probably playing her last World Cup, was the pick of the Indian bowlers as she picked up three wickets giving away just 23 runs. Spinner Poonam Yadav also scalped two wickets and Gayakwad chipped in with a wickets.
Considering the form of the Indian batters, one can only expect Mithali Raj and Co. to create history and give Indian fans a moment to revive the 1983 World Cup win achieved by Kapil Dev and men.
