In response to a fan’s question—“Most female actors claim that cricketers send messages to them on social media, so have you ever messaged any actors?”—Shadab defended his fellow players and shifted some responsibility onto the actresses themselves.

“Even if cricketers send messages, what is wrong with that? Everybody has the option to block, so if you don’t like it, then don’t reply. However, there are also replies from actors, and they appear to show interest as well—as if they want to talk,” he explained.

Shadab's comments have sparked discussions among fans and media, with some supporting his stance while others arguing that public figures should be more cautious with their interactions. The debate highlights the ongoing scrutiny of cricketers' personal lives, especially in the age of social media.
