Former Indian pacer and BCCI selection committee member Venkatesh Prasad blasted the Indian cricket team management, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul, in a series of Tweets. He let his disappointment in dropping Ishan Kishan from the first ODI against Sri Lanka known through a series of Tweets backed by logical claims.
The netizens on Twitter hailed Venkatesh Prasad for raising his voice and speaking against the Board of Cricket Council of India Selection Committee, Indian Cricket Team Management, including the coach Rahul Dravid and Captain Rohit Sharma. Venkatesh Prasad said that the Indian cricket team is biased towards KL Rahul and does not treat Ishank Kishan and Rishabh Pant in the same manner.
Venkatesh Prasad even went on to say that the Indian cricket team is continuing to experience failure in limited overs format due to this mannerism in their management of players. He left no stone unturned in his series of Tweets.
Venkatesh Prasad Tweets that blasted Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul
Think fair would have been to give chance to a man who scored a double hundred in India’s last ODI, and in a series where India lost two games and the series.

Have all the time in the world for Gill, but no way you drop a player for scoring a double ton. https://t.co/LbzKKH8ynw
There is a reason we have underperformed in Limited overs cricket. Constant chopping changing and a guy who does brilliantly and is an X factor is dropped and mediocrity retained.

In Eng, Pant scored a hundred in the final ODI and helped India win the series. However based on T20 form was dropped from ODI team. KL Rahul on the other hand barring a couple of innings has failed consistently but retains his place.Performance is not the foremost parameter. Sad
