Ajinkya Rahane's omission is not understandable, says Sunil Gavaskar

New Delhi, October 05: Indian Cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar has fired on BCCI Selectors here on Wednesday.

The MSK Prasad-led selection panel, on October 1, picked the squad for the three-match T20I series against Australia.

However, they dropped the in-form Ajinkya Rahane for the shorter format of the game.

Right-hander Rahane was in great form in the recently concluded India-Australia five-match ODI series. He struck four half-centuries in a row but still was ignored for T20Is.

"The man who has scored for consecutive fifties, why is he not included in the team?," Gavaskar told to media. "KL Rahul is a fine player, but he didn't play a single game in the five-one day matches against Australia, why is he in the team and Rahane who scored four half-centuries is not there," he added.
