New Delhi: The Indian team is going to tour Sri Lanka soon, for which the squad has been announced. After waiting for many days, BCCI has finally announced the squad through X. The team for ODI and T20 series is quite different, but now a Congress leader is angry about the selection. Shashi Tharoor has objected to not giving place to Sanju Samson in the ODI series and Abhishek Sharma in any squad. He has raised questions on the selection done by BCCI.
Shashi Tharoor got angry?
After the announcement of the Indian team, Shashi Tharoor posted on 'X' and wrote – The Indian squad for the Sri Lanka tour this month is very interesting. But Sanju Samson, who scored a century in his last ODI match, has not been selected for the ODI series. On the other hand, Abhishek Sharma, who scored a century in the series against Zimbabwe, has not been included in any team. Perhaps the success of the Indian team does not matter to the selectors. Still, my best wishes are with the team.
Anger over not selecting these players
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor got angry over the selection of the team for the T20 and ODI series against Sri Lanka and tweeted on Twitter that Sanju Samson scored a century in his last ODI match but he has not been given a place in the team. Along with this, Indian batsman Abhishek Sharma, who scored a century in the T20 series against Zimbabwe, has also not been selected.
Another shocking decision
Sanju Samson not being included in the ODI series and Abhishek Sharma not being included in any team is already a matter of great surprise. On the other hand, head coach Gautam Gambhir and the selectors have together handed over the captaincy of the T20 team to Suryakumar Yadav. Since Hardik Pandya emerged as a leader after the 2022 World Cup, Indian cricket fans are shocked by his not being made the captain.

Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Shubman Gill (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rinku Singh, Riyan Parag, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dubey, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Khalil Ahmed, Mohammed Siraj.
