Twitterati went into a meltdown after BCCI for not including Rohit Sharma in Team India's squads for Australia tour
Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma returned to the nets ahead of their clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Monday after missing out on two back-to-back IPL 2020 matches due to a hamstring injury.
The 'Hitman' had sustained the injury during MI's clash against the Kings XI Punjab on October 18, which they ended up losing after two breathtaking super overs at the Dubai International Stadium.
"Just what we love to see! Hitman in action at today’s training," MI took to social media and wrote which sharing some training pictures.
With his fitness still in doubt, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) decided to leave out Rohit Sharma from India's T20I, Test and ODI squads for their series against Australia.
Not only Rohit, but Ishant Sharma also was missing from the selected squad due to the same reason.
Sharma's exclusion left a huge outrage on social media as fans questioned BCCI's team selection.

Conspiracy to make KL rahul as the 2nd big player in team

What's happening, why Hitman isn't there in Indian squad if he's well settled to play? Even he's not ruled out of IPL, without him it's going to be too much difficult for our team, his record against Aussies speaks for him.

Virat's insecurity with Rohit

I'm 100% sure Rohit is not that much unfit that he won't be able to fully recover before Aus tour.
This is just bad politics in Indian cricket. Surya Kumar Yadav is still not selected either
