Bengaluru, Jun 21 (IBNS): Indian cricketer Rohit Sharma has taken a dig at his critics after clearing Yo-Yo test for the upcoming England tour on Wednesday.

After passing the test, Rohit tweeted, "Dear... it’s no ones business how & where I spend my time.I’m entitled to have time off as long as I follow protocol.Let’s debate some real news shall we & to a few channels,I had just 1 chance to clear my yo-yo that was today.Verification before reporting is always a good idea"
