‘I don’t know what selectors have in their minds’, Harbhajan Singh’s brutal take on Indian star

The world has celebrated the return of King Kohli, the bigger picture was India’s back-to-back failures to win two big tournaments. According to reports, Virat Kohli and captain Rohit Sharma were told they didn’t figure in India’s future T20 plans given that the next World Cup was two years away. It was time to blood youngsters and the logic was sound.

Harbhajan told Hindustan Times –

“See, I don’t know what selectors have in their minds and what they want to do but if we don’t win big tournaments like the World Cup, there always is pressure and the senior players bear the brunt of it. We tend to say If the established stars are not able to win.”

Adding credence to the reports was the fact that India played eight T20Is since the World Cup but Kohli didn’t figure in any of those matches.

Transparency isn’t Indian cricket’s strongest suit – Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid and even Kapil Dev will all agree – but in Kohli’s case, former spinner Harbhajan Singh wants some clarity from the BCCI and its selectors.

Harbhajan added –

“We might as well pick youngsters – we should invest in them. But as far as Virat is concerned, I don’t think he can be sidelined on the basis of form.”

Harbhajan further added – “Yes, you can of course speak to him and convey that look we are building a young team but whatever they choose to do, it should be conveyed to seniors. They shouldn’t be informed after a decision is made.”
