Former BCCI chief selector Krishnamachari Srikkanth has spoken about the controversial omission of Rohit Sharma from India’s 2011 World Cup squad, calling it an “unfortunate” decision. Srikkanth admitted the call was difficult and acknowledged that Rohit later proved his worth with outstanding performances for India. At the time, selectors prioritised other players based on form and team balance, but the exclusion remains one of Indian cricket’s most debated decisions. His remarks have reignited discussions among fans and experts about selection choices and how they impact players’ careers in major tournaments. (PC: NDTV)
