‘Have you seen your own performance’…? Former selector furious at Shreyas Iyer, also scolded Gautam Gambhir

New Delhi. The Indian team recently faced a 0-4 defeat in the T20 series against England. Shreyas Iyer said many times that the players were not performing well. They dropped him from the team. Now former selector Srikanth is furious over his statement. Srikanth has also roped in Gautam Gambhir along with Shreyas Iyer. Let us know what he told them?

Srikanth said, I was very sad after Shreyas Iyer’s statement regarding toss. This is not the way to talk. How you keep the team together and how you build a young team is very important.

If you have decided to exclude a player due to his performance then this also applies to Gautam Gambhir and the captain. If you are asking for the players then what good performance have you done?

Srikanth said, “Shreyas said that he will go with whoever is right for the team. If Sanju Samson is your best option, then you have to be consistent with him. Then why did you give a chance to Vaibhav Suryavanshi and then dropped him. What did he do wrong, is this the right way to groom young players?”

Srikanth further said, Sachin Tendlukar made his debut at the age of 15. I told them not to panic and play without fear, no one will drop you. Gautam Gambhir and Shreyas Iyer should also give the same confidence to Vaibhav Suryavanshi. This is not correct at all. I am angry that Vaibhav Suryavanshi is being mistreated.” Let us tell you that BCCI has also included Vaibhav Suryavanshi in Team India for the Zimbabwe tour. Now it remains to be seen how he performs in the upcoming series.
