Former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif expressed his disappointment with the team’s selectors for the nomination Shreyas Iyer as captain and Tilak Varma as vice-captainSpeaking on his YouTube channel, Kaif said that the two batsmen do not deserve a guaranteed place in the playing XI but have always been given leadership roles. Calling Tilak’s selection a “50-50 call”, Kaif argued that making Iyer and Varma captain and vice-captain ultimately led to Saint Samsonexclusion“You have made two players the captain and vice-captain, who probably do not even deserve a guaranteed place in the playing XI every match. Yes, Tilak is a 50-50 call. He has won matches and played well. I am not denying that. But the problem is that you have no more flexibility. Once you make them captain and vice-captain, they are automatically dropped. Sanju,” said Kaif.Kaif also said that the people who appointed Iyer as captain should be questioned, adding that he could not recall a player who made a direct return to the T20I side as captain.“That’s why I feel dropping Sanju was a huge decision. He could have handled the situation differently. If Shreyas Iyer had not been the captain, he could have said, ‘You have done well and earned your place in the team, but now there is no place for you in the playing XI. Wait for your opportunity. Stay, and how we go.“First, we will give these three players (Abhishek Sharma, Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Samson) a chance.” The people who made this decision deserve to be questioned. I don’t think this has ever happened in the history of Indian cricket, where someone who was not even part of the T20 team suddenly comes back as the captain. I don’t think that’s ever happened before,” he added.In the ongoing T20I series against England, Iyer scored 110 runs, while Tilak amassed 40 runs. The duo will continue to lead India in the fourth match of the five-match T20I series on Thursday.
