3 Indian Players Dropped T20I Team: The 15-member team selected for the Sri Lanka tour has many brilliant players who are adept at changing the course of the match in the blink of an eye. However, 3 players who performed well in the recently concluded 5-match T20 series against Zimbabwe have been ignored.
3 Indian Players Dropped T20I Team: The wait is over. The selectors have announced the Indian team for the Sri Lanka tour. The command of the T20 format has been given to Suryakumar Yadav. At the same time, the captaincy of the ODI format remains in the hands of Rohit Sharma. The biggest decision that the selectors have taken is that Shubman Gill has been made the vice-captain in both formats in view of the future. The main reason behind this is to make him mature in captaincy in time.
The 15-member team selected for the Sri Lanka tour has more than one brilliant player, who is adept at changing the course of the match in the blink of an eye. However, 3 players who performed brilliantly in the recently concluded 5-match T20 series against Zimbabwe have been ignored. Which has surprised everyone. Those players are as follows-
Abhishek Sharma
Abhishek Sharma was seen in a different style on the Zimbabwe tour. Looking at him, it did not feel like he was playing his debut series. On the last tour, he participated in a total of 5 matches. Meanwhile, he managed to score 124 runs in 4 innings. During this, he also scored a century in the second T20 match while batting explosively. Despite this, he has not got a place in the team for the upcoming tour. Due to which everyone is surprised.
Rituraj Gaikwad
Not only Abhishek Sharma, Rituraj Gaikwad also had an important contribution in Team India’s title win on the Zimbabwe tour. He performed brilliantly in every match for the Indian team while participating at Kohli’s favorite position at number three. Despite this, he has not got a place in the Blue team for the upcoming tour. Gaikwad participated in a total of 4 matches against Zimbabwe. Meanwhile, with the help of 1 half-century, he managed to score 133 runs in 3 innings.
Mukesh Kumar
On the last tour, Abhishek Sharma and Rituraj Gaikwad managed to shine with their bat. At the same time, Bihar’s son Mukesh Kumar wreaked havoc in bowling. He took 8 wickets in just 3 matches for the team. Despite this, he has not got a place in the team for the upcoming tour.
