Actor Harshvardhan Kapoor, son of Anil Kapoor, made a tweet in which he discussed the captaincy of the Indian team in Test cricket. During the final of the World Test Championship (WTC final), Australia displayed an excellent performance on the first day, putting Team India on the back foot.
At the end of the first day’s play, Australia had scored 327 runs for 3 wickets. Rohit’s captaincy proved ineffective on the first day. Furthermore, fans were furious due to Ashwin’s absence from the playing XI.
Subsequently, actor Harshvardhan Kapoor, son of Anil Kapoor, caused a sensation with his tweet. He attempted to criticize the team management by tweeting that Virat is no longer the Test captain.
Harshvardhan Kapoor tweeted, “It is a terrible tragedy that Virat Kohli is no longer the captain of the Test team. Without him, the players lack the hunger for victory. They are ineffective. The team selection is poor, Ashwin should have played, and Bumrah’s exclusion due to injury is a huge blow.”
The actor further wrote in his tweet, “The players are merely playing under Rohit’s captaincy and not doing much.”
“Terrible tragedy that @imVkohli isn’t the test captain anymore. There is no intensity/hunger without him at the helm. The players are passive and just going through the motions under Rohit. Poor team selection, Ashwin should have played + Bumrah’s absence due to injury is a huge blow.”

This tweet by Harshvardhan Kapoor has caused panic among the fans. Supporters of Rohit and Virat Kohli are continuously reacting to this tweet and sharing their opinions.
On the other hand, in the Test match, Travis Head remains unbeaten on 146, while Steve Smith is unbeaten on 95 runs. Together, they have stabilized the Australian innings. If the Indian team wishes to make a comeback in the Test, they will need to take quick wickets on the second day.
It is worth mentioning that Travis Head has become the first batsman to score a century in the final of the World Test Championship. It is now expected that Steve Smith will also achieve his 30th Test century.
