Twitter reacts to Ashwin winning the ICC Cricketer of the Year and Kohli being left out of Test team

As Captain:



Most Test wins in 2016: V Kohli

Most Test loss in 2016: A Cook



But Cook is Captain for ICC Team of the year! 😏

With Cook as captain and Bairstow guaranteed to drop a few catches every game, I won't bet on ICC's test team if the year.

R Ashwin has been named the ICC Cricketer of the Year 2016. Isn't it amazing that a person gets a Cricketing award for playing good Carrom!

So number 1 test ranked batsman Steven Smith is 12th man and 2nd ranked Virat Kohli is not even in test team of the year

Kohli excluded frm test team & made captain of ODI team & he's not evn a captain for India in ODIs. That's some great weed ICC

Maybe statistically Virat didn't fit in any categories, But for the year he had, u could have come up with a new award !!😳

4 English players and No Kohli in the ICC Test team of 2016, Give us Ashwin back and Kohli's team can beat this team next week

— Gabbbar (@GabbbarSingh)

No Virat Kohli, and failed captain Alistair Cook as captain? This ICC team can be beaten by a good Ranji team

Remember the qualification period for the ended in Sep. Due to recency factor of performances after that, some things look odd
