Mohammed Shami’s performance in the ICC World Cup semifinal against New Zealand is earning praise from netizens. However, some are targeting his estranged wife, Hasin Jahan.
The non-profit organization, NCM India Council For Men Affairs, which advocates for victims of false accusations of dowry and domestic violence, tweeted, “God knows what will happen to Hasin Jahan, but Shami today secured his future and that of Team India, making history with 7 wickets in India vs New Zealand.”
Another netizen wrote, “Everyone is struggling. Mohammed Shami is struggling for India to win, while his estranged wife Hasin Jahan is struggling to extort more alimony.”
Following are reactions from other netizens.
Hasin Jahan’s allegations against Mohammed Shami
A few years back, Hasin Jahan not only leveled allegations of domestic violence but also hinted at Shami’s involvement in match-fixing. At that time, the Indian bowler stated, “I can die for my country but never betray.”
A few months ago, the court ordered Mohammed Shami to pay Rs 50,000 monthly as maintenance for his estranged wife, Hasin Jahan.
Recently, in an interview with the media, she once again leveled serious allegations against Mohammed Shami.
PM Modi, others congratulate Mohammed Shami

Well played Shami!”
Rahul Gandhi wrote, “Superb bowling by man of the match, Mohammad Shami! His consistent match winning performances have made him a standout player in this World Cup.”
