Sai Sudharsan had done a decent job at No. 3 against England and the West Indies. But in the first test against South Africa, Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Shubman Gill surprised everyone by leaving him out and going with four spinners at Eden Gardens.

The off-spinner was sent down for just one over in the first innings and none in the second, even though the pitch was made for spin. India’s spin-heavy attack also did not deliver as expected. While Jadeja took four wickets in the second innings, South Africa’s Simon Harmer overshadowed everyone with a seven-wicket match haul.

The former Indian all-rounder further added, “I know that in a T20I you tend to go with all-rounders, but specialists will work in tests. In many ways, to create a lot of stability without insecurity, and giving people the roles are extremely crucial.

Ashwin also noted that if they believe Sudharsan is the future, then dropping him suddenly will only harm his confidence. He insisted that Sai Sudharsan has a good future and he only needs to be backed.
He signed off by saying, “He (Sundar) has the ability. But whether it is the right decision, only time can answer. The decision for the No. 3 batter cannot be fleeting, depending on the conditions.”
