IND vs SA | Twitterati blasts selectors for picking Avesh over Deepak ahead of the T20 World Cup
There are a bunch of cricketers who are adored by their country’s fans, and Deepak Chahar is certainly one of them in India. However, with Jasprit Bumrah’s absence in the T20 World Cup, many had thought Chahar would have an audition in the first ODI against South Africa, only to get disappointed.
Prior to their ODI series opener against South Africa, there was obvious chatter regarding India’s team selection. With the T20 World Cup not too far away and Jasprit Bumrah’s unfortunate injury ruling him out of the tournament, there is a vacated place in India’s playing XI. Among the standbys, Deepak Chahar and Mohammed Shami are the ones who have made the cut for the next mega event. Many expected Chahar to play in the series opener and shine with his performance and prove his talent to earn a spot in the World Cup team.
However, their hope did not work out in reality. In place of Chahar, Avesh Khan, who is not even in contention to get a place in India’s 15-member squad, was included in India’s lineup in the first ODI. For obvious reasons, the internet did not take much time to criticize the Indian team management and the selectors for making the call, as they thought it would have been a perfect opportunity for Chahar to shine.

Can't believe
Baffling to see Avesh Khan playing ahead of Deepak Chahar.

Team selections are not making sense at all off late.#INDvSA
Yup, that's what everyone expected
Was expecting Deepak Chahar along with Mohammed Siraj to get a nod for today's game. Why Avesh Khan again?

Also expected Rahul Tripathi or Rajat Patidar to get a chance. Maybe they'll get to play in the next game.#INDvSA
Why?

Selection conspiracy?
BCCI Selectors all set to give RKO out of nowhere by announcing Avesh Khan as Replacement of Bumrah. #CricketTwitter

Why BCCI, why?
Why is Avesh Khan playing above Deepak Chahar? Are they reconsidering Avesh for the WC? 🤔

Not happy
Not quite happy with the playing 11 of India. Deepak Chahar should have been in the team in place of Avesh Khan,he need game time before the world cup.

Is it the sign that Siraj will be Bumrah's replacement ? 🤔
All other selections are good.#INDvsSA | #DeepakChahar | #INDvSA

Swinging conditions and Deepak Chahar on bench and Avesh Khan in the team 👍
