Many people say, we don't feel the speed because everything around us including the air moves with the same speed, but I am not satisfied with the explanation. If it was so, shouldn't we feel a huge amount of resistance if we move in the opposite direction of rotation of earth? I know there's some serious mistake in my interpretation but I don't know what's the mistake.

Your movement against the rotation is relative to it. You are still rotating, you're just rotating a little more slowly than everything else that is rotating.
