Edited video being shared online claiming Modi ignored Aus captain Cummins after World Cup victory
Ahmedabad: An edited video is being widely shared across social media platforms claiming that Prime Minister Narendra Modi ignored the Australian team and did not congratulate them after they won the ICC ODI World Cup defeating India in Final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi was among the several high-profile spectators of the match at the stadium along with former players, Bollywood stars.
PM Modi handed over the trophy to the Australian Captain Pat Cummins after the match presentation. After handing the trophy to Cummins, Modi stepped away from the stage and congratulated Australian players who were waiting down the stage.
But a viral video states that Modi left the stage and did not congratulate Cummins or other Australian players, asserting that the move was a wrong gesture at a global event.
The edited video only shows Modi leaving Cummins deserted on the stage. Cummins was actually waiting for his players to come on the stage but in the video, it is shown as Cummins was left awkwardly on the stage by PM Modi.

Cristiano Ronaldo scores his 100th Saudi Pro League goal
Riyadh (AP): Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 100th Saudi Pro League goal as Al-Nassr beat Al-Shabab 4-2 to move five points clear at the top of the table.
The 41-year-old forward converted a Sadio Mané cross at the near post with 15 minutes remaining to record the 971st goal of his career on Thursday. It was also his 26th league goal of the season.
“Ronaldo is always dangerous going forward and we saw that again today,” Al-Nassr coach Jorge Jesus said.
João Félix, signed from Chelsea in July, scored three goals for the league leaders.
The win took Al-Nassr to 82 points from 32 games, five ahead of Al-Hilal, which has three matches, one more than Nassr, left to play. Al-Hilal meets Al-Kholood on Friday and faces Nassr on Tuesday in what could be a title decider against its Riyadh rival.
“Now we have a derby match against our rival, which is a difficult encounter,” Jesus said.
“We are fully aware of its importance, and we are dealing with it with complete focus as we know that small details could decide the result.”
Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d'Or winner, has yet to secure a major trophy in Saudi Arabia since signing with Al-Nassr in December 2022.
