😡 Fans Fume Over Iyer & Jaiswal Omission 😤
The cricket universe exploded when #ShreyasIyer and #YashasviJaiswal were not picked 😳. These two were top contenders, and everyone was like “Bhaiya, kya ho gaya?” 🥺.
📣 Twitter went wild with #JusticeForShreyas trending like crazy 🐦.📣 Iyer fans screamed foul play, while Jaiswal stans were totally heartbroken 💔.
Even selectors were on backfoot 💬 saying, “It’s not about performance. We had to make some tough calls.” Hmm... sus vibes? 👀
🤔 Favoritism Charges Incoming 🚨
Now here’s where the real masala begins 🍿! Critics are calling out possible bias in selections 😬.
💥 Why is Harshit Rana, a lesser-known pacer, suddenly in the squad?💥 How did Rinku Singh — more famous for IPL hits — get picked over consistent performers like Iyer?
🎙️ Ex-player Abhishek Nayar hinted that some favours might be happening behind the scenes. Hmm... is this the Gautam Gambhir effect? He’s the new head coach, after all 😶🌫️.
The streets are saying this is more about "who you know" than "how you play" 💢. #TeamPolitics #FavoritismAlert
💬 Experts Chipping In 📢
Cricket legends had mixed vibes:
🧠 Harsha Bhogle appreciated the spin duo — Kuldeep & Varun — but said Gill’s place might crowd the top order 😅.🔥 Irfan Pathan called it the beginning of the Shubman Gill Era and said this could be India’s T20 reboot moment 🔁.
Some fans are still hopeful tho 🤞🏽. They think this mix of youth & experience might just be the magic formula ✨.
📉 MediaFx View: Kya Yeh Sach Mein “India’s Best”? 🧐
From a people’s point of view, this squad raises a big question — is this really about cricketing merit? 🏏
🚩 When top-performing youngsters like Jaiswal and consistent batsmen like Iyer are dropped, while “insiders” walk in, fans feel disconnected from the process 😔.
🚩 Cricket should be about talent, performance & equal opportunity — not favouritism or brand image 💯.
🚩 As youth from rural India cheer for their heroes, they want a system that’s fair, transparent and just — something every working-class fan deserves 🙌🏽❤️
