But the surprising omission of the star Indian batting sensation and World number one T20I batter Suryakumar Yadav isn’t going down well with some of the Indian cricket fans. They are releasing their anger over the Indian cricket Board. Taking their angst to a next level, fans are accusing the Indian cricketing authorities of being casteist.
Fans are reacting with their furious reactions on Twitter and lashing out at the Indian cricket Board for ignoring in-form Suryakumar Yadav.
Here’s how fans reacted:
