‘अजिंक्य रहाणे का टीम में चयन साबित करता है कि रणजी ट्रॉफी की कोई इज्जत नहीं है’

Rahane being selected over Sarfaraz for Tests just cos he’s playing well in IPL shows that Ranji trophy and every other domestic competition has zero value in the eyes of selectors. If you want to play for Team India – the only platform that matters is IPL.

Ajinkya Rahane gets a spot in Tests because of IPL form. Sarfaraz Khan misses out on it because of IPL form.

Wouldn't be surprised if Sarfaraz stops playing Ranji & starts playing full fledged IPL to make a statement for Indian team. I'm sure then he will surely get selected.

Getting Rahane back in Test side is a very short sighted move. Another selection in the Test team that has been done on the basis of performances in other formats. He didn't do anything special in the FC games he played. It might seem one off for the WTC Final, but it won't be

Other IPL players get orange or purple cap,
But Rahane got Blue 🧢..
