CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Indian all-rounder Shardul Thakur has sent a strong message to selectors, including chief selector Ajit Agarkar, following his omission from the Indian squad. After scoring a resilient fifty in a Ranji Trophy match, Thakur emphasized the need for selectors to assess players based on their quality and form, rather than merely focusing on recent trends.
Speaking about his performance, Thakur remarked, “They should see if someone has the quality to deliver in crucial situations.” His statement reflects his disappointment over being left out despite consistent performances in domestic cricket and valuable contributions in past international matches.
Known for his ability to swing the ball and provide crucial lower-order runs, Thakur’s exclusion has raised eyebrows among fans and experts alike. With his Ranji Trophy performance, he has reminded everyone of his potential to be a game-changer in high-pressure situations.
The debate over team selection continues, with many calling for a fair evaluation of players who perform consistently in domestic cricket. Thakur’s message highlights the challenges faced by fringe players striving to regain their spot in the national team.
As India prepares for upcoming series, it remains to be seen whether Thakur’s statement influences future selections.
