The Indian cricket team will be playing three-match T20I series against West Indies which is starting tomorrow in America and many Indian players have shared their photos from Florida.
Indian skipper Virat Kohli also posted a pic on the micro-blogging site Twitter and photo-sharing site Instagram which he captioned as “SQUAD 👊💯”.
First of all, take a look at the pic shared by Kohli:
In this image, Virat is seen with his teammates Ravindra Jadeja, Navdeep Saini, Khaleel Ahmed, Shreyas Iyer, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and K L Rahul.
Here’s the tweet of Virat:

However, Rohit Sharma was missing from the photo and the social media users started asking Kohli, “Where is Rohit?”

With your and @ImRo45 every pic it is getting evident that there are indeed 2 camps in team, not seen shikhar or rishabh in ur pics and Rahul n Bhuvi in his pics. You both can give interviews that all is well but action speaks louder than words. Ur egos will break the no. 1 team.

Well, this once again confirmed the rumours of a rift between Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. It is being said that Virat and Rohit are not on talking terms since India got defeated by New Zealand in the semi-finals of the World Cup 2019. However, the captain and the coach Ravi Shastri called all such rumours baseless in a pre-departure press conference before leaving for America.
Just a few hours before leaving for America, Rohit Sharma also posted a photo of himself with the caption: “I don’t just walk out for my Team. I walk out for my country.”

Earlier, Rohit unfollowed Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma on Instagram which was one more indication that all is not well between the two players. Later, Anushka posted a cryptic message which further strengthened the rumours of rift.
It seems that not much is being done by the team management to handle this situation despite the fact that it can be devastating in the future. What do you think?
