Why senior players selected against West Indies?
At the current stage, West Indies is not the best of the team as reflected from the fact that it failed to qualify for the ICC World Cup 2023. Team India choosing to go with its best team against relatively weaker West Indies evoked some reactions from cricket veterans like Sunil Gavaskar openly questioning the purpose of selecting Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli for the tour.
“The runs scored by Rohit and Kohli against this West Indies attack begs the question what did the selectors learn that they didn’t know already,” he wrote in his column for Mid-Day.
“Wouldn’t it have been better to try out some youngsters and see how they take to Test cricket or is it that the selectors don’t want any sort of challenge from the younger lot to the established players,” Sunil Gavaskar added.
