SA vs IND: 3 surprising exclusions from India’s Test squad
The senior players have rejoined the squad and it has seen some surprise exclusions of a few players who were on the contention list.
2. Abhimanyu Easwaran
Abhimanyu Easwaran is one of the unpopular names to the ostensible cricket fans. But, he is quite famous amongst the domestic cricket circuit of India. He is a right-handed opening batter from Bengal who has been representing the Indian A side.
The 26-year-old player was in the Indian A side which toured to South Africa. He was in sublime touch in the South African tour which made him a serious contender to be in the Indian squad. He hit a century against the South African A side in the test match.
The batter has played 66 first-class matches and has hit 4559 runs with an average of 43.83. He has 14 centuries and 19 half-centuries in first-class cricket. The good touch was expected to favour him, but he has not been named in the squad as well in the standby list.
