FORMER WEST INDIES ALL-ROUNDER SHARES 'DISTASTEFUL POST' ON BEN STOKES & WIFE; SHANE WARNE AND TWITTER ATTACKS!
Home > News Shots > SportsFormer West Indies all-rounder Marlon Samuels is currently facing the heat on social media after he launched a scathing attack on England cricketer and Rajasthan Royals (RR) superstar Ben Stokes over the latter's recent quarantine remarks.
The controversial cricketer not only slammed Stokes but also made disgusting comments about the England allrounder's wife.
Stokes, who had to remain in quarantine for a couple of days before joined the Royals camp in UAE has been instrumental in RR's late revival in the ongoing IPL 2020.
Days back, Stokes shared his experience of staying in quarantine and had joked that he would not wish it on his ‘worst enemy’ Marlon Samuels. He had to be quarantined twice in recent times after he went to New Zealand to meet his father before travelling to the UAE for the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL).
“I posted a few Instagram stories and some of the England boys were messaging me asking, ‘What it’s like?’ and I was saying, ‘It wasn’t the most enjoyable thing you ever have to do, I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy’,” Stokes had said.
“I text my brother saying the same thing, and my brother asked, ‘You wouldn’t even do that to Marlon Samuels?’ I said, ‘No, it’s that bad’, — that’s how tough it was,” he had added.
After Stokes’ comment went viral, Samuels did not take it too kindly and responded by posting an explosive rant on Instagram, in which he appeared to make sexual remarks about Stokes’ wife.
“No white boy could diss me in the sports and no get back diss look at this b***h still thinking about me give me 14 days with you wife turn her into Jamaican in 14 seconds mate none of yall knows me that simple means it’s my f***ing superior skin tone yall hate f*** you,” Samuels posted on Tuesday.
Pointing over Stokes and Samuels rivalry, it ignited during a Test series in 2015, when the West Indies batsman mocked the left-hander by saluting him following a dismissal.
After that the pair crossed path again in the 2016 T20 World Cup final when Samuels powered West Indies to a stunning win over England.
Ever since Samuel's comment went viral, it has not been well-received by the cricketing fraternity and fans. Former Australia spinner Shane Warne lashed out at Samuels for passing distasteful comments on him and England's Ben Stokes.
Earlier, Samuels in an Instagram story had abused both Stokes and Warne. Warne finally responded to Samuels' comments and has said that the former West Indies player has no friends at all.
He took to his official Twitter handle to express his opinion on the matter and said: “I’ve just been sent what Samuels has posted re @benstokes38 & I. It’s a very sad situation as he obviously needs serious help-but has no friends at all & not even his ex teammates like him. Just because you were an ordinary cricketer-no need to be an ordinary person. Get help son,” Warne tweeted.
Meanwhile, Ben Stokes is yet to comment on the matter. Check out the post and comments below:

Imagine if it was Ben Stokes who said "superior skin tone", there would be uproar and calls for him to be banned for life. Marlon Samuels needs medical help

And if this was the other way around, Stokes would be banned for life and rightly so:”.
Shameful racism from Marlon Samuels https://t.co/1qf2wEQYp0
