L’ex cricket indiano Atul Wassan ha scattato a Gautam Gambhir per la sua risposta sull’esclusione di Shreyas Iyer dalla serie Squad per l’Inghilterra
Former Indian cricketer Atul Wassan has slammed Gautam Gambhir over his response on Shreyas Iyer’s snub from the squad for the England series. The Mumbai batter has been left out of the main team and India A team despite putting up consistent performances in domestic tournaments and IPL 2025. The five-match Test series against England will commence from June 20 onwards.
“Gambhir only rejects”
Speaking on “Bails and Banters” show, Wassan claimed that India head coach Gambhir only rejected and never selected. He noted that the coach had a role in the selection of a team and that the selectors would surely seek his opinion before taking a call.
“He [Gambhir] non seleziona; rifiuta solo. L’allenatore ha un ruolo nella selezione della squadra e anche i selettori li ascoltano prima di nominare la squadra. Se gli è stata data questa posizione, allora penso che meriti di andare con il suo sentimento, che sia giusto o sbagliatoHa detto Atul.
Cosa ha detto Gambhir su Iyer’s Snub
Gautam Gambhir, who was recently in the spotlight during an interaction at the Goswami Ganesh Dutt Memorial Cricket Tournament, faced some tough questions about the Indian team’s selection for the Test series.
When asked why Shreyas Iyer wasn’t included, he simply said, “Main selector nahin hoon (I am not the selector)” meaning he’s not responsible for picking the team. He wants to make it clear that the selectors are the ones who make those decisions, not him, taking indirect shots at BCCI Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar, perhaps.
The 30-year-old scored 480 runs in just five Ranji matches last season, averaging 68.57 with two centuries. More importantly, he appeared to have finally overcome his long-standing issues against short-pitched bowling—something evident in his dominant showing during India’s Champions Trophy win, where he was the team’s highest run-scorer and second overall in the tournament.
