Shashi Tharoor, Indian team for Sri Lanka tour: The Indian cricket team is going to tour Sri Lanka for a three-match T20I series from July 27 to July 30. For this, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the Indian team on July 18. But Congress MP Shashi Tharoor got angry after seeing this team. He criticized the BCCI by posting on social media.

Expressed displeasure over not selecting these players

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor got angry at the BCCI over the team selected for the T20 series against Sri Lanka. He tweeted in this regard, 'Interesting selection for the Indian team's tour of Sri Lanka later this month. Sanju Samson scored a century in his last ODI but he has not been given a place in the team. Indian batsman Abhishek Sharma, who scored a century in the T20 series against Zimbabwe, has also not been selected. But what is more important is India's success. Best wishes to the team.'
