The selectors decided to rest the main players for the ongoing series against South Africa and the upcoming series against Ireland. Players like , , and Avesh Khan, who have performed well in the IPL over the last two years, earned call-ups to the Indian squad. Meanwhile, Dinesh Karthik and Sanju Samson were recalled to the national team after their fantastic performances in the league. Unfortunately though, not all top performers in the IPL received a place in the Indian squad for the two series. Since they did not get the opportunity, some players took to social media and posted different reactions to their non-selection. On that note, we will look at the three players who were seemingly upset after not seeing their names in the Indian team.

Expectations hurts Expectations hurts Rahul Tewatia came into the spotlight during IPL 2020 when his all-round brilliance helped the Rajasthan Royals win multiple matches. He became a well-known player after he smashed five consecutive sixes off Sheldon Cottrell's bowling in a match between the Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings. Tewatia moved to Gujarat Titans in IPL 2022 and won his maiden IPL trophy. The left-handed batter held his nerves in tense situations and guided the franchise to the win in multiple matches. He impressed fans with his finishing skills in run-chases. Last year, Tewatia was named in the Indian squad for the home series against England, but he could not make his debut. He was subsequently dropped and is yet to be recalled. Now, after being ignored for the Ireland tour, Tewatia wrote on Twitter: "Expectations hurts."
