Donald Trump Mispronounces Cricket Legends’ Names
The US leader mentioned Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli but miserably failed to pronounce their names correctly. Trump said, “This is the country where your people cheer on the biggest cricketers, from Soochin Tendulkar to Virot Kolee, the greatest in the world,” The clip went viral and became a laugh riot for the viewers.
However, former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen seemed unimpressed with the mispronunciation of cricket legends’ names. English batsman took to Twitter to advise Donald Trump to do some research on Cricket before the speech. Pietersen mentioned a good friend of US President, Piers Morgan in his tweet for giving his advice to Trump. The tweet reads, “FFS, @piersmorgan, pls ask your mate to do some research in pronouncing legends names?!”
