One of the women in the post was Brazilian model Izabelle Leite who was linked to the Indian batting star. Leite commented on the post and said “t's been 12 years, and counting. Why can't people get over it." Apart from the aforementioned three women, LizLaz who is a noted German content creator also featured.
