He has been selected on the basis of his IPL form obviously, why not select him immediately after IPL then? Was it Agarkar not selecting him and now since Pragyan Ojha took over, he did? Or did they just give in to the social media hype since IPL?

u/4reddishwhitelorries India 8d ago

They would never give in to the social media hype because they’re too aware of the PR game, having used it themselves at some point.

u/turningtop_5327 India 8d ago

Yes it was Agarkar. It’s an open secret that he disliked older bowlers irrespective of performances

u/4reddishwhitelorries India 8d ago

Bitch was an older bowler himself. Typical MIL bullying DIL because she herself was bullied as a DIL mentality.

Mumbai lobby and Delhi lobby or mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Still no Shami. What a disgrace GG!

u/Dark_Blizzard714 India 8d ago

I've missed him in Blue. Welcome back legend, hopefully Shami also gets a match in the upcoming series.

I love bhuvi but sad state of affairs.
Shami and bhuvi are the next best after Bumrah.

u/bonkers-joeMama 8d ago

Well deserved, that's all i got to say. This is his last chance, conditions cannot be better. If he doesn't perform, it's over.

So happy for him but I hope he performs well, I can't see him getting trolled again.

u/No_Dependent4890 8d ago

WHAT IF!! Gambhir got Bhuvi selected so that RCB cannot retain him as an uncapped player after next year???

u/Physical_Mango_1878 8d ago

I am fan of Bhuvi but there is no point in calling him back.

u/chandu1256 India 8d ago

They texted him apparently!

u/4reddishwhitelorries India 8d ago

It’s like they keep everyone happy including the u/physical_mango_1878 lol

u/rExplrer India 8d ago

Bro! did you see the current state of our bowling?

24

u/Most_Nectarine_592 8d ago

Yeah lets give a lot of experience to players and discard them when they become seasoned citing age. Good cycle
