Angry Indian cricket fans attacked X after the team’s first ever whitewash at home. India lost 0-3 against Tom Latham’s New Zealand; this was a new low in the history of Indian cricket. A section of fans took to social media after the match to call out Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma for their poor play with the bat on Sunday.

#Etire was trending on X after Rohit and Kohli finished the series with 91 and 93 runs respectively after playing all three matches. The duo reached fifty each in the Test series, accounting for most of the 90 runs. Kohli and Rohit looked on with a touch of sorrow and had a few mind-blowing moments in the recently concluded series.

In fact, legendary India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar felt that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were going through a terrible patch of form. Speaking to Indian Express, Gavaskar said that the duo was going through a bad time and they had no chance in the series. Gavaskar added that ideally the Indian duo should do some match practice and preparation before embarking on a long Test season.
