The current No. 1 T20 batsman, Surya Kumar Yadav, who has played nonstop cricket this year, has finally received a break for the ODI leg of the Bangladesh tour which prompted a Twitter trend of casteist BCCI
Dilip Mandal, a columnist for Shekhar Gupta’s The Print, used Twitter to trend the hashtag “casteist BCCI.” Dilip Mandal apparently felt betrayed by the selectors’ and BCCI’s overall casteism when Surya Kumar Yadav was left out of the ODI team during the Indian tour to Bangladesh.

Surya Kumar Yadav has been rested for the upcoming Bangladesh tour.
The current No. 1 T20 batsman, Surya Kumar Yadav, who has played nonstop cricket this year, has finally received a break for the ODI leg of the Bangladesh tour. During the forthcoming series, Yadav, who has been playing cricket nonstop since the IPL earlier this year, finally received the well-earned break, but Dilip Mandal had to add a caste-related spin to it.
Notably, Indian selectors have rested every player over the previous few months to control the enormous burden that current players are under because of the nonstop nature of cricket. VVS Laxman took over as the coach for a few series during this time, including the present tour of New Zealand, allowing even the support personnel, such as coach Rahul Dravid and his staff to rest.
Dilip Mandal accused Ravi Shastri of excluding Suryaย
Mandal inexplicably accused Ravi Shastri of keeping Surya Kumar Yadav out of the Bangladesh tour during his lengthy speech against casteism in the BCCI, during which he also attacked Sunil Gavaskar, one of the greatest batsmen in history. After formerly coaching the Indian team, Ravi Shastri is now a commentator.
It’s ridiculous enough for someone who doesn’t even know that Shastri stopped coaching the Indian team quite some time ago to make comments on cricket, but Mandal also charged the BCCI with casteism for leaving Sanju Samson out of the ODI squad.
Sanju averages 32 in List A cricket, the home version of the 50-over ODIs, and was a member of the Indian T20 squad in New Zealand. With only one 100 in 114 List A games, Sanju’s average of 32 scarcely supports his selection to the national team. Sanju is in or near the T20 team because his 50-over performances are far worse than his T20 record.
In recent years, the BCCI selectors have made several odd picks, so they are not flawless. However, to accuse them of casteism for allowing a player to take a well-earned break is as absurd as it gets.
