Southpaw Pragyan Ojha has reason to sulk

For it’s difficult to fathom what one needs to do in order to stay in the squad, especially after being adjudged the man-of-the match in your last Test.

Ironically, that was the last game he played for India as he did not get a look in in the two-Test series that concluded against South Africa on Monday.


For the record, Ojha has taken 113 wickets in 24 Tests and 21 wickets in 18 ODIs. The Sandeep Patil-led selection panel has chosen six pacemen for the two Tests in New Zealand.
