His teammates Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das, too, had endured similar attacks on the social media after they greeted their fans on Durga Puja in October.
Sabbir posted the Christmas greetings on his page at 10:35am on Friday. Sixteen minutes later, he posted another status wishing his fans the best on Eid-e-Miladunnabi.
Both the posts met with a barrage of hate responses from fanatics.
One Taqiul Hasan Spandan commented, “Despite being a Muslim, you are wishing Christmas greetings! Are you a Muslim or a Christian?”
Similar comments flooded the posts.
However, there were many fans who strongly protested such hate responses. Sabbir himself protested the fanatics’ comments.
