You cannot expect Shikhar Dhawan's domestic performance to decide his place in the team: Saba Karim
Former Indian keeper Saba Karim hailed the selectors' decision to retain Shikhar Dhawan in the 18-man ODI squad for the upcoming 3-match series against South Africa.
Shikhar Dhawan's ODI spot was under scrutiny following the emergence of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Prithvi Shaw. In this year's Vijay Hazare Trophy, Dhawan scored a paltry 56 runs at an abysmal average of 11.20. Youngster Ruturaj Gaikwad top-scored in the competition with 603 runs at an astonishing average of 150.75.
Despite his poor form in VHT, the selectors kept their faith in the veteran Delhi opener. During a recent discussion on India News, Saba Karim gave his opinion on the matter and said:
"You cannot expect Shikhar Dhawan's domestic performance to decide his place in the team. His performance for Team India at the international level decides his place in the team. Here, the selectors feel that Shikhar Dhawan still has the qualities that can help the team to grow."
He added:
"That is why Shikhar Dhawan is still getting an opportunity in this team. There is a strong possibility that Ruturaj Gaikwad can play at No. 3 as well."
It will be interesting to see how Dhawan performs in the series in South Africa series as Gaikwad will be eagerly waiting on the bench for an opportunity.
