'What's The Deal With SKY... Why No Arshdeep': Ex-India Star Questions BCCI Selectors

The BCCI announced squads for Team India's upcoming Test and ODI series against West Indies on Friday. The selection committee faced backlash by many former cricketers and experts of the game. From the snub of Cheteshwar Pujara to some youngsters getting a chance, every big decision has come under scrutiny. Amid all, former India cricketer Akash Chopra has also lashed out at the BCCI selectors. Chopra has questioned the purpose of giving Suryakumar Yadav sole Test match and then dropping the player. He has also questioned about Arshdeep Singh not getting selected for the ODI matches in the Caribbean.

"And what's the deal with SKY's intermittent selection for Tests...gets picked...gets dropped. Is he considered for the longest format or not? And why no Arshdeep for ODI? Is he fit?" wrote Chopra on Twitter.
