Bangladesh vs India: Former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has shown disappointment after the KL Rahul-led team dropped Kuldeep Yadav from the playing XI in the second Test vs Bangladesh. Kuldeep was the player of the match in the first Test wicket his eight-wicket match haul and crucial runs with the bat. The swap left many baffled, including Gavaskar.
Gavaskar can’t accept dropping Kuldeep
“Dropping a (player who was) Man of the Match, that is unbelievable. That’s the only word I can use and it’s a gentle word. I would like to use quite stronger words, but it’s unbelievable that you left out a man of the match, who got eight out of the 20 wickets,” Gavaskar was quoted as saying by broadcasters Sony Sports Network after the toss.
He added that either Ravichandran Ashwin or Axar Patel could have been dropped in place of Kuldeep.
“You have got two other spinners. So surely, one of the other spinners could have been dropped. But this guy, who took eight wickets should have played today with due respect to what the pitch looks like.”
Rahul says unfortunate for Kuldeep
Captain KL Rahul made no mention of any injury to Kuldeep Yadav. Rahul just revealed Udnadkat had replaced Kuldeep in the playing eleven.
“Hard decision on Kuldeep but we know Ashwin and Axar can find spin, and bring Jaydev in to cover all bases. The unfortunate decision for us to leave him (Kuldeep) out but it’s an opportunity for Unadkat.”
