The Committee of Administrators Chairman Vinod Rai has stated that the selectors and Indian players are not children and they will resolve the issue of non-communication themselves. After the squad of Windies was announced Murali Vijay voiced his angst about not being communicated by the selectors.

Umesh Yadav has stated that whenever he was not picked for the team, he did not face any lack of communication from the selectors or the team management and was always provided with a valid reason. After playing a lone Test match in England, Yadav only featured in India’s 1st Test against Windies.

Murali Vijay has mentioned that any player who is not in the playing eleven for a long duration will always have a doubt in his mind and that does not help in the game. The Indian top order right now has too many contenders in the likes of KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Murali Vijay and Prithvi Shaw.

KL Rahul believes that one needs to be mentally strong and stay calm to be successful at the international level and said that more exposure to competitive cricket brings more experience. The Indian opener also talked about the England series and the upcoming series against Australia as well.
