Mitchell Marsh Resting His Legs On World Cup Trophy, Photo Goes Viral

AHMEDABAD: Australia broke the hearts of many Indian cricket fans by defeating Rohit Sharma-led side in the final of the Cricket World Cup on Sunday. This is Australia's sixth win - the most by any team in the world. Now, a photo has gone viral on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that shows Australian cricketer Mitchell Marsh resting his feet on the World Cup trophy. The photo has evoked strong reaction from social media users, who said Australia may have won the cricket's biggest trophy, but not the respect.

In the photo, Marsh is seen sitting on a sofa with his legs stretched out and the World Cup trophy beneath it.

But the photo is enough to spark a debate on social media.

One user from India posted the winning moment from 1983 World Cup in which Kapil Dev is seen keeping the trophy on his head. "Difference between our culture & theirs," he said.
