Rohit Told to Drop Himself From 5th Test, Accused of Taking Selfish Decision

Generally considered one of the most selfless cricketers in the game, India captain Rohit Sharma has been accused of putting his interests over the team's during the defeat against Australia in Melbourne.

Rohit, together with the team management, decided to drop Shubman Gill from the side and demote KL Rahul to the No. 3 spot.

The changes were made in order to help Rohit open for the side once again. However, the said changes backfired, with both Rohit and Rahul failing to perform at MCG.

Coming into the 4th Test against Australia, Rahul was looking like the best batter in the team. But, the changes seemed to have disturbed his rhythm while Rohit himself failed to provide India a fiery start at the top in both innings too. Rohit now faces criticism over his selfish act which was only his self-interest and not the team's.
