New Delhi: Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has questioned Board of Cricket Control in India (BCCI) selection criteria after young batsman Suryakumar Yadav was overlooked for India squad against Sri Lanka and Australia.
The right-handed batsman has been picked in the India ''A'' squad for two tour matches and three one-day games against New Zealand. However, the right-handed batsman was unable to find the spot in the national team.
Harbhajan took to Twitter and asked why there are different criteria for different players.
