The fifth and final Test between India and England is underway. While players like Anshul Kamboj and Sai Sudharsan made their Test debuts during the series and Karun Nair returned to the playing XI after a long gap a few players have remained on the sidelines throughout including Arshdeep Singh Kuldeep Yadav and Abhimanyu Easwaran. Despite being part of multiple India squads since receiving his maiden call-up in 2022 he is still waiting for his Test debut even as 15 others have debuted during that time. Abhimanyu Easwarans father lashed out at the team management. His father Ranganathan Easwaran has expressed his frustration over the way his son has been treated by the team management. Im not keeping a count of the number of days that Abhimanyu has been waiting for his Test debut. I am counting the years; it has been three years now. What is the job of a player? It is to score runs. He has done that. People said he didnt perform in two India A matches during the last tour of Australia and didnt get into the team which is fair enough. But Karun Nair wasnt in the team during the period when Abhimanyu performed before the BGT. Karun wasnt picked for the Duleep Trophy or the Irani Trophy. Abhimanyu scored close to 864 runs if you consider the period from last year to the current year Abhimanyus father Ranganathan Easwaran told TOI. Then how do they compare? I dont understand. They gave a chance to Karun Nair. Fair enough he scored 800-plus runs. The selectors have put faith in him. Ranganthan also said that his son looks depressed Ranganthan further said that his son looks depressed My son looks a little depressed but that is bound to happen. Some players jump the gun based on IPL performances which earn them a spot in the Test team. IPL performances should not be counted while selecting the team for the longest format. Ranji Trophy Duleep Trophy and Irani Trophy should be the basis for Test selection he said. The 29-year-old has played 103 first-class matches scoring 7841 runs at an average of 48.70 Easwaran has smashed 27 centuries and 31 fifties.
