As per the reports in RevSportz, it is learned that both the senior players have expressed their disappointment over the demands of the fans.

India National Cricket Team are undergoing intense training sessions in Melbourne
India National Cricket Team are undergoing intense training sessions in Melbourne as they are eyeing the win in the fourth Test of the series. The focus, in particular, will be on two of the senior players of the team, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who have come under massive pump.
Rohit and Kohli reportedly have looked pretty solid in the nets. They have ticked almost every box right and are making sure that they leave no stone unturned in their preparations for the next match of the series, which will be a virtual series decider.
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were unhappy with fans shouting and demanding certain shots from them in the nets
But both the stalwarts of the India National Cricket Team, however, also felt uncomfortable during the practice session. This was because they were unhappy with how some of the fans came to watch the nets at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne.
The reports claimed that fans were shouting and demanding certain shots from Rohit and Virat. This didn't go well with the two senior players of the team as they expressed their disappointment over the same.

The Indian Team, after the first Test in Perth, closed the doors for the fans. This was because the fans reportedly abused some players, who complained about the same, and hence, the Rohit Sharma-led side practiced behind closed doors, but fans were present at MCG.
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli haven't been at their best in Tests
Coming to the form of Rohit and Kohli, both the batters haven't been at their best in the longest format of the game. The India captain has looked torrid with the bat as he managed just 19 runs in the two games that he has played while batting in the middle order.
On the other hand, Virat Kohli started the Australia tour on high as he slammed an elegant century in Perth. But after that he has struggled to get going and has managed just 26 runs in the next two games that he played, getting out to ball outside off.
Both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be keen to step up for the team in the last two games. If the India National Cricket Team have to fancy their chances of winning the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, they would want both their senior players to bring their A-game.
