Kevin O' Brien Slams Ireland For Racist Attacks On Indians | First Sports With Rupha Ramani | N18G

Ireland is facing a disturbing rise in racist attacks and anti-immigration protests, and Indians are among the main targets. In recent weeks, shocking incidents of violence have left the community living in fear. Now, Ireland’s greatest cricketer, Kevin O’Brien, has called out his countrymen, urging an end to the hate. From assaults on taxi drivers to entrepreneurs being attacked, the numbers tell a grim story that hate crimes are rising, and 2025 could be the worst yet. Rupha Ramani looks at why Indians have been so crucial to Ireland’s growth in sport, business, and culture and why targeting them is not just wrong, but a direct blow to the nation’s future. Should Ireland learn from India's cricket team over inclusivity?

Also on the show, on India's Independence Day, sports stars Manu Bhaker, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Sachin Tendulkar, and others celebrated the momentous day. Rupha Ramani brings you an exclusive interview with one such star. Pioneer of women's chess and FIDE Women's World Cup finalist, Humpy Koneru, spoke about her challenges and responded to Magnus Carlsen's questioning of India's rise. And Tymal Mills has taken cricket on OnlyFans. The platform famous for adult content is expected to show cricket's "unfiltered" side. But is the sport ready for it? The Hundred's latest gesture says otherwise.
