As India and Bangladesh battle on the field, it’s not unusual for tensions to rise among fans, sometimes leading to clashes in the stands. In one such incident, Bangladesh cricket team’s super fan “Tiger Roby” was allegedly attacked by Indian cricket fans at the Green Park stadium in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, during the second test match against
Bangladesh on Friday, September 27.
As soon as the situation became tense in the C-stall of the stadium, the security personnel intervened and rescued Roby, who had been beaten up by the fans. The fan, known for his tiger face paint and attire, said to the police that he was hit on his abdomen and lower back, leaving him unable to breathe.
