A former India cricketer has criticised what they called the “unfair” treatment of Abhimanyu Easwaran ahead of India’s two-Test series against Sri Lanka. The BCCI has announced India’s squad for the series, which begins on August 15 at Galle International Stadium. India and Sri Lanka will play two Tests. The source does not identify the former cricketer or provide details of Easwaran’s selection status or the treatment being questioned. It also does not set out the full squad. Easwaran’s position in the team will therefore need to be judged against the official squad and playing XI announcements.
