Australia won the toss and decided to field during the first ODI at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. The Men in Blue started off badly as they lost their openers early in the match. Rohit Sharma was able to make only 10 runs in 15 balls before getting caught by David Warner. After Sharma got out, fans believed skipper Virat Kohli will enter the stadium at his usual No.3 spot, but that didn’t happen. Instead, KL Rahul entered the crease and shocked many.

Though KL Rahul was able to make 47 runs, the move didn’t help Virat Kohli’s batting. Kohli was only able to make only 16 runs before getting out caught and bowled by Adam Zampa. After Kohli’s poor performance, fans took to Twitter and trolled him for entering late at the crease.
