“Too Much Harsh On Deepak Hooda”: Twitter Reacts As Hooda Gets Dropped From Playing XI In Edgbaston T20I vs England
Updated - 09 Jul 2022, 09:22 PM
The 27-year-old batter Deepak Hooda was not included in the India National Cricket Team playing XI in the second game of the three-match T20I series against the Jos Buttler-led England National Cricket Team at the Edgbaston, Birmingham on Saturday, July 9.
The right-handed batsman Hooda, who can occasionally bowl right-arm off-spin, has been in terrific form in recent times. In the T20 International (T20I) games he has played for the India National Cricket Team he has done an outstanding job by scoring runs at a brilliant strike rate.

In the recently concluded two-match T20I series against the Ireland National Cricket, he batted exceptionally well for the Hardik Pandya-led side.
In the second T20I against Ireland in Dublin, he scored remarkable 104 runs off 57 balls, including 9 fours and 6 sixes and he batted with a strike rate of 182.45. He also stitched up a record-breaking 176-run partnership with the wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson.
He batted very well for India in the warm-up match against Derbyshire, scoring a half-century, and in the first T20I against England at The Rose Bowl, Southampton on Thursday, July 7, he played explosive innings, smashing 33 runs off 17 balls, including 3 fours and 2 sixes.
Overall, Deepak Hooda has played 6 games for India in the shorter format of the game, smashing 205 runs at an average of 68.3 and a strike rate of 172.3.
Notably, the big guns of the Indian team, who played the rescheduled Test against England, were rested for the first T20I and now they have made a comeback to the team, as a result, India made changes to playing XI, despite winning the first game in a dominant fashion.
India made 4 big changes to the winning combination as Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant were included in the playing XI and Deepak Hooda, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh and Ishan Kishan were dropped.
Here’s How Twitter Reacted To Deepak Hooda Being Dropped From India XI In Edgbaston T20I vs England:
Very unfortunate for Deepak Hooda to miss out in this red hot form.

Why is Hooda out? Doesn't make any sense. And honestly I find it very weird that Arshdeep was there just for one game (not that one can argue abt it now).

Now he better deliver the goods— Salilacharya (@Salilacharya) July 9, 2022
Great that Virat and Rohit will open, it is the best option if you want your big boys to play in T20Is. But very unfair on Deepak Hooda! #cricket #CricketTwitter #EngvInd

Deepak Hooda has been given some time off to prepare for captaincy on Zimbabwe tour.

Only if pant starts performing. If he fails Hooda or KL can fill that no.4 spot to make best xi

DJ Hooda has every right to feel shortchanged. They could have given Karthik a break.#INDvsENG
— Kushan Sarkar (@kushansarkar) July 9, 2022
It was obvious.. Kohliya ko toh aur do- teen saal bhi lagey form mein aane mein toh team mein toh rahega..
But, so unfair to Hooda, century bhi maari..
Next is SKY, when another orange cap greed player, KL, comes in.. #ENGvIND— Puneet (@BizzPun) July 9, 2022
Can’t even imagine what Kishan, Hooda and Iyer are feeling right now
Kishan and Iyer are among top 5 highest run scorer’s in world post 2021 t20 wcup. Competition in Indian Cricket getting on par with IAS entrance ?#INDvsENG #ENGvIND

Agar kohli aaj na chala toh hooda teri kher nahi ?#ENGvIND #Kohli #hooda

It's too much harsh on Deepak Hooda. He is playing brilliantly though he is out.#ENGvIND @BCCI @vikrantgupta73

Hooda was on fire so they put water on him by making him a water boy?
— Mohit Mevliwal (@MevliwalMohit) July 9, 2022
Deepak Hooda might be dropped but he has made a strong case to be in the 15 of #India's World Cup squad.#IndvsEng

Ye kya selection hai, pant ki jagah hooda accha option tha wo bowling bhi krleta hai…. and we have wicketkeeper dk also….. poor selection ???????
— Real@abhi (@Realabhi9) July 9, 2022
But why DK always? He has earned the long run. Hooda can wait.
— Deepak Surana (@deepaksurana813) July 9, 2022
Hooda should not have been dropped.
Strange decision, regardless of who has replaced him.
Against spin in particular, he's easily one of India's best T20 batters.#ENGvIND— Shaan Waseem (@shaanwaseem2) July 9, 2022
This is cruel why the hell Hooda is dropped man was in a top form started good too last game…THIS IS CRUEL.
— Kavi Sundar (@jeevan_48) July 9, 2022
Those who are crying that deepak hooda is dropped should understand cricket first. When the senior players are rest or injured and they are a replacement, then when the players come back they will be dropped.. it has happened earlier with manoj tiwary.

Wo England walo ka problem hai.. But hooda kya raha tha
Usko nikal diya ?.. Dekhte hai virat kya krta hai— Pranjal (@RealPranjal93) July 9, 2022
Don't think so, droped Hooda and Arshdeep for 2nd T20, very harsh on both with the rythm they are in…
Specially Hooda who is as agreesive as Sehwag was….
Fearless , no matter who the bowler is… glimpses of Sehwag— PRIYANK GUPTA (@archpriyank09) July 9, 2022
Imagine playing finished Kohli over Hooda … That's why BCCI is trophyless past 8 years

If you ever feel life is unfair to you think of Deepak Hooda you won't feel alone #INDvsENG #DeepakHooda
