The issue of Rohit Sharma and Star Sports now seems to be reaching a different level. Rohit Sharma had alleged that his personal conversations were also broadcasted for TRP whereas he had denied it, but now Star Sports has responded to the Team India captain. Star Sports has issued a statement in which it has completely rejected Rohit Sharma's allegations. Star Sports has said that they did not play any audio of Rohit Sharma on air.
What did Star Sports say?
Star Sports, replying to Rohit Sharma, said, 'The clip of Rohit Sharma's conversation is from May 16, Wankhede Stadium. Star Sports had the rights to broadcast that clip. In that video, Rohit Sharma was talking to his friends. We neither recorded nor broadcast any audio or conversation of that clip. That video was used only for the pre-show but did not contain any audio recording.
Let us tell you that the video and audio of Rohit Sharma was posted by KKR on its social media handle. After the controversy over that video, KKR had deleted it from social media. Rohit Sharma had to face a lot of problems regarding this audio and that is why he took the help of social media and directly accused Star Sports. However, the channel has made it clear that it respects the privacy of the players.
What did Rohit Sharma say?
Rohit Sharma tweeted against Star Sports and alleged that now cricketers are being intruded into their personal lives. Cameras are now recording everything he does, be it a match day or training day. Rohit said that I had forbidden Star Sports to record this conversation but still the channel played it on air, which is a violation of privacy.
