Why is India suddenly using a rotation strategy for the Commonwealth Bank Series when they have refused to use one in Tests for the last year? Ashish Magotra writes on Firstpost. Moreover, he asks, why are they resting players when the next major tournament is the IPL?
In fact, more than anything else, it makes one wonder why the batsmen need to be ‘rested’ now? Are they saving up their best for the IPL? Do they want to be fit for the ‘big’ event? What other reason could this selection committee and the team management have of suddenly lapsing into a rotation policy in the middle of a tough tour of Australia?
