Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane's omission for Sri Lanka Test series was expected: Sunil Gavaskar

Sunil Gavaskar is not surprised with the non-selection of senior batters Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane in the squad for two Tests against Sri Lanka, terming it 'expected'. On Saturday, Pujara and Rahane, along with pacer Ishant Sharma and wicketkeeper-batter Wriddhiman Saha, didn't find themselves in the squad for the Test series against Sri Lanka in March. Amidst the chatter of a possible transition phase starting in the Test side, the exclusion of Pujara and Rahane seems to be the first step towards it.

Sunil Gavaskar Weighs In On Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane's Team India Future After Test Axe

Veteran batters Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane were both dropped from the Indian Test squad for the upcoming two-match series against Sri Lanka. In the squad announcement on Saturday, Team India chief selector Chetan Sharma said the duo will need to find a way back to the national side through good performances in the Ranji Trophy. Both Pujara and Rahane have been in a poor run of form and struggled throughout 2022. According to former India captain Sunil Gavaskar, time is not on Pujara and Rahane's side and the duo will find it "difficult" to play for India again.

The star opener was given the white-ball captaincy just a couple of months back. Sharma said that he considered Rohit Sharma the “No. 1 cricketer” in the country, making it clear that the batsman will lead the team when fit.
