IND vs WI: Cheteshwar Pujara has been dropped from the Test squad for the West Indies tour. Former India off-spinner Harbhajan Singh did not like this decision of the Indian selectors. Bhajji says that Pujara is the backbone of this team. According to Harbhajan, the same benchmark should be set for every player.

India's ODI and Test team for the West Indies tour has been announced. After the defeat in the final of the World Test Championship, the Indian selectors took some tough decisions and showed the way out of some experienced players from the team. The biggest name in this list is that of Cheteshwar Pujara. However, the decision to drop Pujara has not gone down well with many former Indian cricketers. After Sunil Gavaskar, Harbhajan Singh has also come out in favor of Pujara.

Cheteshwar Pujara is the best Test player

Former India spin bowler Harbhajan Singh says that Pujara is the backbone of this team and he hopes that the Test specialist batsman is rested and not dropped. He said, "I am worried about the fact that Cheteshwar Pujara is not there. He is a big player in the Indian team. Hope he too would have been given a break and would not have dropped. Pujara is the backbone of this team." If you are dropping him, then the average of the rest of the batsmen is also nothing special.

Bhajji further said, the benchmark should be the same for every player, no matter how big a player he is. If you are not considering Pujara as an important player, then by this logic the rest of the players are also not important. Questions should not be raised about his career. India won the series in Australia. At the same time, the victory was hoisted in England as well and Pujara's performance was strong everywhere where the team played well. He hasn't done well in the last year and a half, but you look at the rest of the batters as well. In such a situation, it is not right to question only one player.
