Indian all-rounder Vijay Shankar who is currently out of the team set-up has recently shared a body transformation image on social media in the hope that it would inspire people.

“The sweat, the time, the devotion. It pays off! #TransformationTuesday,” Vijay Shankar’s caption read onTwitter and Instagram on Tuesday. But, it didn’t work as the picture failed to impress some users, who roasted the all-rounder.

The 28-year-old fast-bowling all-rounder was last seen plying his trade for India on June 27 in a World Cup match against the West Indies. He was ruled out of the World Cup due to a toe injury and couldn’t make a comeback to the Indian team ever since.

Vijay Shankar was forced to leave the World Cup campaign midway when he picked up a toe injury due to a yorker bowled by Jasprit Bumrah in the practice session.

At the time of listing India’s 15-member World Cup squad, India’s chief selector MSK Prasad made his statement very clear that Vijay Shankar earned a place in the team due to his “three-dimensional skills”.

Ambati Rayudu, who was ignored in the team set-up because of Shankar’s three-dimensional game plan, took to Twitter to troll MSK Prasad’s statement with a cheeky post which went viral on social media in no time.

“Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup,” he tweeted at the time.

Talking about Vijay Shankar’s latest development, he recently made a comeback in the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) and was also included in India A squad for a series against South Africa A. Unfortunately, he was soon ruled out of the series with a thumb injury.

Here’s what Vijay Shankar tweeted:

While some of the fans didn’t like the transformation, Hardik Pandya was impressed with it. He posted ‘Class Maccha (friend)’ on Instagram.

Facial hair and clothing off are the only two differences one can make. You may have had a 6pack under that sweatshirt who knows ?
