According to some former cricketers, his exclusion came as a shock because in a country like England where swing & seam play an important role, the Meerut-born cricketer would have been a perfect arsenal to the Indian side.
A BCCI source was quoted as saying that Bhuvneshwar Kumar doesn’t want to play Test cricket anymore. He’s focusing on the upcoming T20Is. “The drive has gone missing,” they added.
