Why did Samit Dravid get a place in Team India despite poor performance? Know the reason | News India

Got a place in Team India

Now Samit Dravid has got a place in the Under-19 team. Samit's performance has raised many questions. Samit is currently playing in the Karnataka State Cricket Association's T20 tournament Maharaja T20 Trophy. This tournament was not good for Samit, who played for the Mysore Warriors team. He played 7 out of 10 matches in the team's league stage but during this time not a single half-century came from his bat. He could score only 82 runs in these 7 matches. In this too, his best score was only 33 runs.

Know the reason for the selection of the committee

This was Samit's first major tournament in senior cricket and he failed to make an impact in it and yet he was selected in the Under-19 team. Although Samit failed in the Maharaja Trophy, he performed well in the Under-19 domestic tournament in Cooch Behar in January this year.

Samit helped Karnataka become the champion. Samit scored 362 runs in 8 matches of this tournament and also took 16 wickets with his medium pace bowling. He left his mark by taking 2-2 wickets in the semi-final and final. This means that even though he failed in his first tournament at the senior level, he has the ability to perform well at the Under-19 level and that is why he has been selected.
