The Indian cricket team dropped Bhuvneshwar Kumar for the fourth T20I match of the ongoing five-match series against New Zealand. Without Kumar in the side, India suffered one of their heaviest defeats in the format by runs: an 87-run defeat against the Blackcaps in Auckland.
"I was surprised that Bhuvneshwar was dropped. There are at least 10-11 bowlers from both teams, and each of them has a high economy rate. Everyone is leaking runs. So I cannot understand why he was dropped," he said in a video on his YouTube channel.
India lost the match, but won the series before the Auckland T20I match
"If everyone is going for runs, you cannot pick out one person like this. He is coming back after four years. You have also won the series. It is not like a do-or-die situation that you had to make this change. I do not agree with this. He should have gotten the entire series before deciding," he added.
Mohammad Kaif explains why Team India should support Bhuvneshwar Kumar
"When you are aware of his capabilities, you should have stood by him even if two or three games were bad. Anyhow, there is no Bumrah and all the new bowlers. I understand we are disappointed, and he was not in the flow that we expected. I am sure Bhuvneshwar realises this himself."
"But he was not the only one getting hit. You would get a clear picture after giving him all five games. This is a hasty call. Everyone is getting hit anyway," the former Team India cricketer stated in the same video.
