Former Indian cricketer Dilip Vengsarkar has expressed strong criticism regarding the selection of the Indian squad for the upcoming T20I series and T20 World Cup 2026. Vengsarkar is particularly baffled by the exclusion of Sarfaraz Khan, citing his consistent domestic form and previous performances for India. He highlighted Khan's crucial partnership in a Test match against England as evidence of his talent, questioning why the player has not received more opportunities across all formats.
