Although Indian Cricket team head coach Rahul Dravid confirmed in the pre-match press conference that Rohit Sharma and Yashashvi Jaiswal will open the batting for India, Jaiswal was not in the playing XI in the India vs Afghanistan 1st T20I in Mohali.
It was quite shocking for all the fans to take that announcement. Since, everyone was expecting to see Jasiwal in the playing XI for India.
After the toss, BCCI confirmed that Yashashvi Jaiswal had a sore right groin, so he had to miss the India vs Afghanistan 1st T20I in Mohali.

Why Cristiano Ronaldo did not attend Diogo Jota's funeral?
Cristiano Ronaldo chose not to attend his Portugal teammate Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva's funeral on Saturday. This sparked headlines and speculations.
However, as per the Portuguese media, A Bola, Cristiano Ronaldo did not want "excessive attention" at a time when he wanted Jota's family to have more peace and discretion.
According to them, the Portuguese National team captain had a direct conversation with Diogo Jota’s partner, Rute Cardoso, and was also in contact with Jota’s parents after the incident.
During this tough time for Jota's family, Ronaldo wanted to show empathy and grieve in private to eliminate any media hysteria, which could have been "more harmful than beneficial."
When Ronaldo was absent during the funeral, Rúben Neves and João Cancelo made a long trip from the USA to pay tribute and carry the coffin of their teammate Diogo Jota at Igreja Matriz de Gondomar.
Manchester City star Bernardo Silva and Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot were also there at the funeral. Most of the Liverpool FC players and staff were at the funeral as except for goalkeeper Allison Becker, who sent a special letter to Jota and Andre on social media.
