Ravichandran Ashwin raises concerns about Kuldeep Yadav’s continued absence from India’s team selection, pointing to the spinner’s lack of game time during the ODI series against England. Ashwin says Kuldeep was overlooked throughout the series and interprets that pattern as an indication that the team management no longer holds confidence in the left-arm wrist spinner.

According to Ashwin, Kuldeep appears to be waiting for opportunities that may not arrive, and he urges the player to stop waiting for selection rather than expecting a return. The comments have drawn wider discussion among cricket followers, with debate focusing on whether Kuldeep’s omission reflects form and team balance decisions or a longer-term loss of faith.

The two outlets present the same core points: Ashwin criticizes the way management has used—or not used—Kuldeep, cites his complete ODI series exclusion against England, and calls on him to adapt to the situation.
