Twitter explodes as Sourav Ganguly sparks debate post Shubman Gill and Ajinkya Rahane's exclusion

Time has come for indian selectors to pick same players in all formats of the game for rhythm and confidence.. too few are playing in all formats ..great teams had consistent players ..it’s not about making all happy but picking the best for the country and be consistent..

— Sourav Ganguly (@SGanguly99)

There are many in the squad who can play all formats ..surprised not to see shubman gill ..Rahane in the one day squad..

— Sourav Ganguly (@SGanguly99)

It was a big disappointment for me too. Gill is the one to start grooming for No. 4.

Dropping Rahane cost India the World Cup.. He is surely a class who deserves to be in ODI if not T20...

— Prasad Bhatkhande (@Prasad_SSB)

Absolutely true!!! Rahane must be given chance in One Day!!! He is ideal player for No - 4 position..👍👍

It's big 2019 and people still want Ajinkya Rahane in the ODI team.

Agree with many things you say Sir,,

But I don't agree with Rahane,,he is in pathetic form from last 3 years,,

Didn't scored a 💯 in Tests from September 2016,,

Just look at his scores in County this season,,

All are in single digit,,

It's time for youngsters like Ruturaj Gaikwad

The Unsung No.4 of Indian ODI team. There is no better partnership than Kohli and Rahane.



Proved himself several times.



But Mada Sambirani Kirukku (MSK) Prasad ruined Rahane's wonderful ODI career.

It has already ended, he is the most successful overseas player, still didn't get selected for CWC19. Idiots like V Shankar were chosen.

— Sohan (@pro_sohan)

Why not Rahane can play sat no 4?? besides trying these rahul, iyer?



Rahane can play in tests but can't play in odis

This is what thinks...

absolutely ridiculous

Some players r unlucky coz captain don't like them for watever reason,

Rahane is exception, He has not been liked by 2 successive captains, Dhoni n now Kohli..

Such a talent out of the team has no other explanation..

— Arun Bhandari (@Believe_INKarma)

Dada how rahul is getting selected even his recent failures in all 3 formats on foreign soil.... Need to give chance to rahane and younger players

— Prashantkoli (@Prashan22788739)

Disappointing that players of Rahane's stature can't find a permanent place in Indian team. He's a class player, sad to see him struggle, & no place in world cup 🤔

— Lakhbir Singh Virk (@laksvirk)

I think Rahane should be in world cup 2019 squad & he was right candidate for No.4 slot but there are politics in selection committee too.

— Mohammad Kaif🇮🇮 (@mdnooreain18)

Rahane shown the doors, Rayudu was given a snub ... Shubman Gill not selected !



Selection committee playing with careers !
