Twitter Reactions: Twitter trolls Rohit Sharma after he throws it away again

Rohit Sharma has perhaps been the biggest enigma in Indian cricket over the last several years. He is talented, stylish, hard-working and determined, but his career has been plagued by inconsistency.
In the ongoing 4th Test between India and South Africa, Rohit was dropped on 1 by Hashim Amla. Kyle Abbott bowled one that came straight in, taking a thick edge to Amla at slips. Rohit thanked his stars and carried on from there.
But his stay was cut short, as spinner Piedt sent the struggling Sharma back to the hut for just 1. The ball was flighted on the off stump, Sharma mistimed his shot, as it safely went down to the fielder’s throat. The shot execution didn’t do much justice with the situation in which India were in during that period.
India captain Virat Kohli won the toss for the fourth time in the series and decided to bat. India made only one change to their playing XI with Amit Mishra making way for Umesh Yadav.
Dane Piedt and Kyle Abbott, the faces South Africa brought in for this Test, had bowled exceptionally well by taking vital wickets and maintaining pressure while Morne Morkel had operated with control. The ineffectiveness of Imran Tahir, who bowled four expensive overs in two sessions, and the lack of other attacking options meant the spells were burst.
Let’s have a look at how the world of Twitter reacted to yet another forgettable outing for Rohit Sharma.
ROHIT SHARMA! PLEASE! For Talent's sake!

Rohit Sharma doesn't want to play Test cricket.
Just let him be. #IndvsSA

Hopefully Rohit Sharma will not require anyone explaining to him again what throwing your wicket away means #INDvSA @IExpressSports

Cracked it.
The problem isn't Rohit Sharma, it's those few overs before tea.
Or lunch.
Or stumps.
Or dinner. #IndvsSA

Dear @ArvindKejriwal sir please arrange some Dharna against BCCI so they stop selecting Rohit Sharma at least for the Tests.

Oh Rohit Sharma wants to humiliate everyone who's been backing him? Nice. If this is how he's gonna perform, India can have Raina instead.

Don't question the talent of Rohit Sharma, its just that he is confused between T20, ODI & Test matches.
