Ahead of the white-ball series, the Board of Control of Cricket in India (BCCI) has replaced Mohammed Siraj, to give him some rest, with another seamer, Prasidh Krishna, but not Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
As the board picked the pacer who took 16 wickets in 12 matches over the pacer who claimed 29 wickets in 17, it provides some insight into the selectors' thought process. For the cricket fans who wanted to see Kumar back in action for the national team again, they might have been heartbroken with the decision, but the truth is the truth.
"There was an opportunity earlier as well, when they were selecting, and now also, as you had to replace someone, but Bhuvneshwar Kumar is not that guy," Aakash Chopra raised the topic on his YouTube channel ‘Aakash Chopra’.
English conditions would be more favorable for Bhuvneshwar Kumar
"Never say never is what we all say, but if you are not selecting him even now, when you have rested Siraj, and this was a chance in Ireland and England, where the ball moves a little more and there is help for fast bowlers, perhaps the right time to give one more opportunity to Bhuvneshwar Kumar, but if he hasn't got a chance here, the road ahead is closed," he said in the same video.
He should be played: Aakash Chopra
"It may sound very harsh. It may sound heartbreaking because I only had said that he should be played, that he is absolutely ready, and you make so many changes due to workload management, and that we have fast bowlers, but not so many that you can't play Bhuvi one or two series. I was not talking about the World Cup. We don't know what would happen in 2028," he added.
