unveiling allegations of favoritism
Ruturaj Gaikwad, the captain of the Chennai Super Kings, has drawn criticism from BCCI for being overlooked for the forthcoming T20 World Cup in 2024.
Veteran Indian batsman Krishnamachari Srikkanth chastised the BCCI for failing to choose Chennai Super Kings captain Ruturaj Gaikwad for the 2024 T20 World Cup. Even though Ruturaj played well in the IPL 2024, he was left out of the India squad, and Srikkanth took issue with the BCCI’s decision to add Shubman Gill to the reserve list. Gill seemed to get opportunities even when he is not playing in any capacity, according to Srikkanth, who accused the team management of showing “favouritism.” At 509 runs, Ruturaj is now the highest run scorer in the IPL 2024, while Gill is in 13th place with 320 runs.
Despite Shubman Gill’s complete lack of form, the squad nonetheless chose to include him. Ruturaj Gaikwad is deserving of a spot, no question about it. In just 17 innings, he scored over 500 runs. Against Australia, he also amassed a century. Selectors adore Shubman Gill. Even if he fails, he still gets a second shot. Despite failing in Tests, ODIs, and T20s, he still manages to find a spot.Preference in the choosing process is excessive. Favoritism is the main factor in team selection, according to a video that Srikkanth posted on his “Cheeky Chekka” YouTube channel.
Reserves: Shubman Gill, Rinku Singh, Khaleel Ahmed, Avesh Khan
