India's swashbuckling opener Rohit Sharma on Sunday took a dig at the ICC after his name did not feature in a poll initiated by the apex body on who has got the best pull shot in international cricket.
The International Cricket Council tweeted a collage of four batsmen playing the pull shot, asking fans whose is the best.
It included pictures of West Indies legend Viv Richards, Australia great Ricky Ponting, former South African batsman Herschelle Gibbs and Indian skipper Virat Kohli.
Unamused, Rohit, who is the only batsman to score three double hundreds in the ODIs, responded by tweeting, "Someone's missing here ?? Not easy to work from home I guess."
The ICC had asked, "Which batsman, past or present, has the best pull shot, in your opinion?"
Rohit added, "Through these testing times India has seen a major drop in its air and noise pollution levels, Venice has dolphins playing in their harbours, boars running around their streets, Rome has swans in their fountains and the pollution levels have dropped all over the world!
