Fans on Twitter hit out at Indian skipper Rohit Sharma after he gets ruled out of the second Test against Bangladesh. They questioned BCCI for making him the captain and lashed out at them saying that how can they make someone captain who missed 8 out of 10 Tests due to injury.
Rohit Sharma misses 8 out of the last 10 Tests due to an injury
After missing the first Test, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma on Monday (19th December) was ruled out of the second Test Bangladesh. This comes as a massive blow considering the series online and WTC final spot.
With this, skipper Rohit will miss 8th out of his last 10 Tests due to injury. In the last year, he hasn’t been a regular part of the Test side. He first missed the two Tests in Australia and then after they were rested for the series against New Zealand.
If this was not enough, he then was injured ahead of the Test series against South Africa, where India lost 2-1. While many expected him to play a crucial role in the rescheduling the fifth Test against England he again was injured and was ruled out of the game.
Rohit Sharma has been the Best batsman for India in Test cricket in 2021 but in the last 10 Test matches, he has missed 8 test matches including 2nd test match against Bangladesh. This is not a good sign for India.

Should retire from Test and T20i ASAP. We have too many good players who are fit as well. It's time Rohit Sharma. You are a good player but not bothering about maintaining international level fitness is what has caused your downfall. https://t.co/olo1X0q6IN
