There seems no end to the problems of the selectors after Karun Nair's exclusion from the Test squad for West Indies series. Nair who has played only three Test since his 303 runs innings against England in 2016 and now he has been axed from the Test squad.
Nair's exclusion from the Test squad have raised questions but the chairman of selectors MSK Prasad said on Monday that the player himself has been told the reasons. "I personally spoke to Karun soon after the selection of the Test team against the West Indies and also told the ways to make a comeback. The selection committee is very very clear with regard to the communication process," Prasad told news agency PTI.
Significantly, Nair had said a day before the selection that neither the team management nor the selectors had communicated with him why he has been not picked in playing XI. In the last Test against England, Hanuma Vihari who had yet to make his debut, preferred over Karun Nair. It is widely believed that the Indian team management were not happy with Nair's inclusion in the Test set-up.
However, MSK Prasad explained why the certain decision was taken.
"Communication has always been the strong point of this committee. It's really tough to inform any unpleasant news to any player. You need to have valid reasons to explain them about their exclusion though they may not agree with it.
"Having said that we are very clear and candid in our communication process. My colleague Devang Gandhi spoke to Karun Nair at length in England to keep him motivated and wait for his opportunities," Prasad said.
When he was asked what is the way forward for Karun Nair to make his comeback again, Prasad said,"He will have to keep on piling runs in Ranji Trophy and whatever India A series is there. Karun is very much in the scheme of things for Test cricket. Right now, we have advised him to focus on performing in domestic and India A matches.
Keep in mind, Prithvi Shaw and Mayank Agarwal along with Mohammed Siraj and Vihari have been included in the squad for the 2-match home series staring from October 4. Selectors have given rest to some of the senior players to keep them afresh for Australia tour.
