However, he was included in the reserves and Shivam Dubey was rewarded for his form in the ongoing IPL 2024. BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar finally revealed about the decision and said that it is not because Rinku has done anything wrong. In the press conference held on Thursday, Agarkar said that this decision was taken keeping in mind the team composition and as a result all-rounder like Axar Patel was given preference.

“”This is probably the hardest thing we’ve had to discuss. He has not done anything wrong, even Shubman Gill has not done anything better than him. It’s all about combinations. Some wrist spinners have been included to give Rohit more options. This is very unfortunate. “He’s in the reserves, so it tells you how close he came to being in the 15.

Agarkar also spoke candidly about Hardik Pandya’s role as well as his appointment as vice-captain.

“There was no discussion regarding the vice-captaincy. He has come after a long leave. He has played all the matches for MI and we have got a month and a bit to play his first match. Hopefully he will find his form. Will maintain.” “There is no substitute for what he brings to the team, especially with the ball. His fitness is important and he has done well in the IPL so far,” the BCCI chief selector said.
