This will be the third bilateral series in a year that the regular captain of India will be missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As soon as the BCCI made an official announcement over the Indian squad for the West Indies ODI series, tweeple lost their cool and questioned the team management for such outrageous decision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"in\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TeamIndia?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TeamIndia<\/a> ODI squad:<br>Shikhar Dhawan (C), Ravindra Jadeja (VC), Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shubman Gill, Deepak Hooda, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan (WK), Sanju Samson (WK), Shardul Thakur, Yuzvendra Chahal, Axar Patel, Avesh Khan, Prasidh Krishna, Mohd Siraj, Arshdeep Singh<\/p>&mdash; BCCI (@BCCI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BCCI\/status\/1544622004799946752?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 6, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>What made people even more angry was the fact that not only senior players like Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant and skipper Rohit Sharma will be rested for the ODI series but also the Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan will be leading the men in blue against West Indies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read Also<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/trending\/bihar-muslim-family-last-rites\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/trending\/bihar-muslim-family-last-rites\/\">VIRAL: Muslim family performed last rites of their Hindu employee in Bihar<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shikhar will be the seventh captain to lead Team India in the last eight months. Ever since Head coach Rahul Dravid has taken over the Indian coaching, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya have led the Indian side in various tours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This neither gives a correct message on the International level and also exposes the lack of leadership in the Indian camp for other teams to take advantage of. Moreover, it seems like former cricketer are also not happy with the team management and Rohit Sharma&#8217;s decision for resting for the India vs West Indies ODI series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">No one comes back to form while resting\u2026<\/p>&mdash; Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IrfanPathan\/status\/1544636566689177600?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 6, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Irfan Pathan, the former cricketer and current commentator also took to his Twitter handle and posted a message saying that &#8216;No one comes back to form while resting.&#8217; Even former cricketer Waseem Jaffer also liked Pathan&#8217;s tweet. Indian cricket fans also seem upset over Rohit&#8217;s lack of dedication in leading team India in several bilateral series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ever since Virat Kohli had stepped down from the Indian captaincy in all formats of the game, KL Rahul had led men in blue for South Africa ODI series, then, Rishabh Pant handled the leadership for the South Africa T20 series. Hardik Pandya took over the captaincy in India tour of Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally it was Jasprit Bumrah who led the Indian side in the decider match against England  and now Shikhar Dhawan is gearing up for taking over the captaincy in IND vs WI ODI series. Does Virat Kohli has no successor or is Rohit Sharma too old to lead India in every match. However, BCCI has great thinking to do right now and all the fingers are pointing at the new head coach Rahul Dravid to come up with better plans and team combinations.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/top-news\/red-alert-mumbai-pune-satara\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/top-news\/red-alert-mumbai-pune-satara\/\">Maharashtra monsoon: IMD issues red alert for Mumbai, Pune, Satara; 2 washed away in floods in Palghar<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/india-news\/udaipur-kanhiya-lal-murder-case\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/india-news\/udaipur-kanhiya-lal-murder-case\/\">Udaipur horror: Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot slams PM Modi, says such incidents won\u2019t happen if he appeals to people for peace<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Due to several health issue, injuries covid infection, regular captain of India, Rohit Sharma has missed three bilateral series and now the skipper has also been rested for the upcoming India vs West Indies ODI series. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":310982,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"#INDvsWI : Is #RohitSharma being rested too much?
