"Hardik Pandya giving chances to his friends" - Fans react as Prithvi Shaw is not included in playing XI for IND vs NZ 1st T20I

Young opener Prithvi Shaw failed to find a spot in Team India's playing XI for their T20I series opener against New Zealand in Ranchi on Friday, January 27.Shaw, who returned to India's squad after 18 months, will have to wait a little longer for his comeback. The team management went with Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan as the two openers for the first T20I.Several fans took to social media, expressing disappointment over Shaw's absence. Here are some of the best reactions on Twitter:Mottakin Anik@aguerooooooo16I know Shubman Gill is in prime form but that in ODI format. That format suits him.But T20 is not his game. He needs time to settle in. He got chance against SL and failed.This time Prithvi shaw should have had a go against NZ.#INDVsNZT20 #shaw #GillI know Shubman Gill is in prime form but that in ODI format.

Just because Ishan can keep wickets doesn't mean he edges out Prithvi Shaw.
