Ajay Jadeja has commented that despite being ‘unjustly’ (?) Removed from the Test squad, Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane will not be able to bang again.
Last week, the BCCI announced India’s squad for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka, which did not include Pujara, Rahane, Ishant Sharma and Viruthiman Saha.
Speaking to Cricketbus, Ajay Jadeja first mentioned that it was unfair to see them abandoned after a series of defeats (in South Africa).
He added, “This is sad. If it had been done a year and a half ago, I would have supported that decision even if India were still at the top and won. It was unfair to drop Rahane and Pujara after losing a series. You isolate these two, it’s not a good way to build a team,
Both are players who only play in Tests, and if you leave them in that one form I don’t expect them to come back. I believe they are wrong because these are firm. They have played in 80-90 Test matches so I hope they will have a chance to come back. There is enough talent around. The next generation has pushed them.
This is a difficult one. In Indian cricket, at one time, I do not think many people had the opportunity to say goodbye in the way they wanted. This is always a sad story. This is how it is going to be. Currently it happened to Ajinkya Rahane and Setheshwar Pujara. . It will happen to someone else later. This is not going to change, ”said Ajay Jadeja.
