In a career span of 10 years, he has achieved greater heights than what the greats of the game couldn’t do in their entire career.

While each team has some people who’ve almost booked a slot, there are others who’ve been facing the axes muscly swung by their national selectors ahead of their respective bilateral ODI series.   Selection of a team has never been more difficult before, with the onset of far too many players emerging from the domestic T20 and One Day leagues.

However, reality, like always, is far from the truth. Despite being the co-favourites, the Indian selection board and the team management have been having the toughest of times in picking their...
