IND vs SL: Indian cricket fans furious over Team India's 'shocking' decisions in first ODI

Social media website Twitter was flooded with reactions to Team India’s selections in India vs Sri Lanka 1st ODI. As the Men In Blue face the Lankan side at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati, Assam, the Indian cricket fans were miffed with the fact that the team management decided to leave out star players Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan from the playing XI. Suryakumar scored a sensational 112* off 51 balls in his last international game, during the 3rd T20I against Sri Lanka, while Ishan hit a double century in his last ODI appearance.

Meanwhile, reacting to Ishan and Suryakumar’s omission from the squad, a fan said,, “Double Centurion @ishankishan51 makes way for shubman gill and @surya_14kumar in the form of his life has no place in playing 11 of the ODI. Sometimes Indian team selection is as simple as speaking Mandarin.”

“Selectors & Coach Rahul Dravid. What is the logic of not picking up Worlds Best Batsman Surya Kumar who is in a terrific form Can't keep on experimenting at this level. Be straight & honest if a player doesn't perform leave him. Don't play With the sentiments of players,” another user tweeted. Here’s a look at a few more reactions:-
