India suffered its first loss against England recently and it has not bought our spirits down. India is still acing it in the World Cup 2019. Besides this loss, India also suffered a major loss for the team when their all-rounder Vijay Shankar had to drop the World Cup midway due to injury.
Vijay Shankar is now to be replaced by Mayank Agarwal, who has not yet played a single ODI. Recently Ambati Rayudu took a sly dig at the India chief selector after he termed Shankar as a 3-dimensional player. He tweeted that he might need 3-D glasses to watch all the matches now.
Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup 😉😋..

People came up with theories, that maybe this tweet cost him his place in the Indian team. They trolled him a lot and some were really funny. Here is what netizens had to say.
In all these Indian Team injury & replacement issues, this "highly probable" Ambani Rayudu is continuously ignored. Reason is this tweet 👇😂

BCCI picked Vijay Shankar in place of Ambati Rayudu saying it was a tough choice. Now that Shankar is injured they replaced him with Mayank Agarwal. Is BCCI trolling Rayudu for that 3D comment? 🤔🤪 #CWC19

I feel that he would have been selected if he had not tweeted that sweet sarcastic message.
