Team India management faced the wrath of fans after Umran Malik was dropped from the playing XI for the 3rd ODI against West Indies on Tuesday. The series is currently level at 1-1 going into the deciding match at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad.West Indies captain Shai Hope won the toss and opted to bowl yet again. They went in with the same combination, which won them the second ODI last week. Team India continued to rest veterans Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli for the second match on the trot. As a result, Hardik Pandya continued as skipper for this contest.The visitors made two changes to their playing XI after suffering a deflating loss in the second ODI. Umran Malik and Axar Patel were left out in favor of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Jaydev Unadkat. Ruturaj makes his ODI debut, while Unadkat made a comeback into the 50-over format for the first time since 2013.Umran Malik's exclusion from the team was not received well by the fans as they felt the management should have persisted with him and given him a fair chance. Malik played in the first two ODIs of the series, but did not get to bowl much. He only bowled three overs each in those games before being dropped for the series finale. Here are some of the Twitter reactions on the matter:Soumyakanta Mishra ©Delightful Odisha™@skmishra86@BCCI I wish they had stuck to @umran_malik_01. @JUnadkat is not a White ball bowler that you would want to play in the World Cup anyway. #UmranMalik has the pace X-factor & should've been persisted with. #CricketTwitter #WIvIND@BCCI I wish they had stuck to @umran_malik_01. @JUnadkat is not a White ball bowler that you would want to play in the World Cup anyway. #UmranMalik has the pace X-factor & should've been persisted with. #CricketTwitter #WIvINDR A T N I S H@LoyalSachinFanI thought Axar Patel and Umran Malik were in the scheme of the ODI World Cup but they are rested.

The all-rounder revealed that they were also looking forward to bat first and post a decent target on the board. Pandya said:"We're one-all and going into the decider, so we're pretty excited for the opportunity to get the win and perform under pressure. Looks like a good surface, I don't think much will change much. I would have liked to bat first anyway, it might change later. It's a good opportunity for us to set up a good total."On the changes to playing XI, he added:"Two changes for us.
