Fans Troll Rohit Sharma
Rohit Sharma is just shameless to not give up the captaincy. Can’t score runs. Can’t set fields. Can’t put pressure. Lost 3 Tests at home. Losing here too.

If you are still defending Rohit Sharma's clueless & defensive captaincy, then you are just making a fool out of yourself. He's just not meant for this job, he needs to accept it and resign immediately after this test irrespective of the outcome of this match

Team India got wrapped up for 46 runs during the first Test against New Zealand played in Bengaluru in October this year. Eyeing the overcast conditions, Indian captain Rohit Sharma opted to bat first after which the Kiwi bowlers put up a brilliant bowling effort and wrapped up the Indian team for its lowest ever score in Tests at home. During that time, Rohit was being slammed by the critics and surely it proved out to be a major reason behind Team India’s 3-0 loss against New Zealand.
