Twitter has erupted over the non-inclusion of in-form batsman Surya Kumar Yadav in India’s upcoming tour of Bangladesh, with many users saying the BCCI was “casteist”.
The Board had recently announced the teams for the ODI and four-day Test matches with the Bangladesh A team. Rajat Patidar, Shahbaz Ahmed and Kuldeep Sen were the new names included in the team.
Suryakumar Yadav’s absence from both lists was very conspicuous and this triggered a barrage of criticism at the BCCI and selectors.
एक ही जाति के 7-7 खिलाड़ी रखते हो और कप वग़ैरह कुछ लाते नहीं हो। सूर्य कुमार यादव को बिना वजह बाहर कर दिया। संजू सैमसन भी बाहर है। बीसीसीआई शर्म करो। #Casteist_BCCI pic.twitter.com/SPQdI35RfJ

Despite playing so well, #SuryaKumarYadav is not being included in the team.
Because he comes from backward caste. #Casteist_BCCI#SanjuSamson pic.twitter.com/nSx0BzINlU— ਲੈਚੀ ਅਮਲੀ (@snoop__0) November 24, 2022

Users also took on BCCI for excluding Prithvi Shaw and Sanju Samson, both of who have shown god calibre in recent times, showing their eligibility for a call up to the Indian team. Some even made memes to drive home the point.
Prithvi Shaw does not get selected even in India A. Wow https://t.co/w3KaviIAaQ

Why is Prithvi Shaw being so punished for a small blemish in his defense, while Pant gets to go Scot free? They could have brought Shaw instead of Pant with Samson at wickets #pant #prithvishaw
