A ‘fit-again’ Kedar Jadhav was on Thursday slightly taken aback after not being picked for the remaining three ODIs against the West Indies and said there was no communication over his non-exclusion.
Jadhav was drafted into the India A side midway into the Deodhar Trophy as the selectors wanted to assess his fitness before taking a call on his comeback.
In the presence of three national selectors, Jadhav made his case with an unbeaten 41 off 25 as well as sent down five overs but the ODI team announced during the course of the Deodhar game didn’t figure the Maharashtra player.
“I did not know this,” said Jadhav when asked if there was any communication over his selection for the remaining three games against the West Indies.
“Let’s see. I need to see why they have not picked me. I don’t know what the plan is now that I am not there in the team. Probably, I will be playing the Ranji Trophy,” said the 33-year-old.
Earlier, Karun Nair and Murali Vijay had said they were not spoken to by the selectors before being dropped from the Test squad, a claim that chief selector MSK Prasad has denied.
