RIP Sachin prints Times, Twitter says RIP TOI

Looks like the paper has taken tag of being English's leading daily too seriously. Else why would they display such irresponsibility towards publishing one faltoo news after another?

It all began with Deepika Padukone's cleavage show which the managing editor defended with an editorial (if you can call it that). This was soon followed by news of Sussanne Khan having an affair with Arjun Rampal for which they received a lot of flak. As if that was not enough, the national daily perhaps committed the worst and unimaginable mistake by publishing RIP Sachin Tendulkar instead of RIP Phil Hughes. A grave blunder indeed.

Cricket fans took to Twitter to slam the paper's careless ways and finally said RIP TOI! It's high time they learnt from their mistakes.

Shocked to hear about Phil. Sad day for cricket. Deepest condolences to family, friends and well wishers. RIP #PhilipHughes

@varungrover and "RIP Sachin Tendulkar" at the end is suggestive of much worse... @chuck_gopal @Chaitanya_13
