Team India were off to a shaky start to the ODI series against Australia at the Optus Stadium as the returning veteran pair of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli folded for abysmal scorer early in the game.

Fans of the side took to social media to express their disappointment with the showing of the seasoned batter, who had returned to a massive reception that was left dumbfounded with their departure.

One fan posted, “woke up at 8am on a sunday only to watch rohit 8(14) and kohli 0(8)".
