The Indian squad for the Test series between India and New Zealand was announced on Friday. The name of a player who has been in demand for a long time is again not included in the Indian team selected for this series. This player has been doing very well in domestic cricket for a long time, but still BCCI once again disappointed the fans and ignored this player in the New Zealand series also. This player is none other than Abhimanyu Easwaran. Abhimanyu Easwaran has been scoring runs consistently in domestic cricket and is one of the strong contenders to be included in Team India.
Career in domestic cricket has been brilliant
Abhimanyu Easwaran is continuously performing well in domestic cricket. If we take a look at Abhimanya Easwaran’s career in domestic cricket, he has scored 7506 runs in 167 innings of 98 matches in first class cricket. During this period his average has also been 49.38. Which is quite wonderful. He has also scored 26 centuries and 29 half-centuries in domestic cricket. Abhimanyu has also batted brilliantly in many big matches in his career. Had also batted well in the recently played Irani Cup. After which it was expected that he could be included in Team India’s squad in the Test series against New Zealand, but the team selectors did not think about him.
Australia series is the next chance
There is talk about Rohit Sharma that he will not be able to play in the first test match to be played on the Australia tour. Actually, when the Indian team will go on tour to Australia. Then Easwaran can become the third opener of Team India. However, now it will be interesting to see whether BCCI will give him a chance or not. Many other players are also involved in the race. In which the name of Ruturaj Gaikwad is also included.
