There are many cricketers who despite making significant contribution are no longer projected to be in the selection radar of the Indian team. One such cricketer is lower middle order batsman Hanuma Vihari.

Opening up about his snub from India’s Test plans, Vihari feels disappointed.

“Definitely, there was disappointment. I didn’t find a reason why I was dropped and it was the only thing that was bothering me. Nobody really contacted me and told me the reasons why I was dropped,” said Vihari during a recent interview.

Vihari admitted that he has now made reconciliation with the selection calls.

“It took some time and I have gone through ups and downs. I am not worried about it now. I have put aside my personal side of things and I don’t take too much stress about whether I am in the Indian team or not. There are other matches to win and it is about winning the trophies,” said Vihari.

Nowhere to be found in India’s plan for the current World Test Championship (WTC) Final cycle,  Vihari is now engaged in the domestic circuit, rendering his service for South Zone in the ongoing Duleep Trophy in Bengaluru.
