Indian cricketers Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul have been in the news for their “crass” comments on women on a celebrity talk show.

However, an old video of Indian skipper Virat Kohli has resurfaced on the internet which has got many people to talk about the comments he made.

In the video, Kohli was asked about the quickest date he has ever had to which the captain replied, “I actually went on a blind date which ended in about five minutes. I saw the girl and I ran away.”

When asked why he ran away, Kohli very proudly replied saying, “She was ugly”.

 The video has got people thinking about how long Kohli would be suspended for such comments in made about a woman.

Batsman Rahul and all-rounder Pandya have been heavily criticised on social media for their remarks being sexist and inappropriate.

When Kohli was questioned about the duo in a press conference he said, “From the Indian cricket team point of view, any inappropriate comments that are made in that scenario are something that we definitely don’t support”.

“The two concerned players felt what has gone wrong and they have understood the magnitude. It has to hit anyone hard, they will definitely understand the things that have not gone right.

“These are purely individual opinions … we definitely, as the Indian cricket team, do not support views like that and that has been communicated.”
