Irfan Pathan tears into selectors over Auqib Nabi omission: 'I didn't understand the selection process'

Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan has questioned the selectors over the omission of Jammu and Kashmir pacer Auqib Nabi from India's Test squad for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka. Nabi had also missed out on the one-off Test against Afghanistan, though he travelled with the squad as a net bowler. The right-arm seamer strengthened his reputation with a standout domestic season, playing a pivotal role in Jammu and Kashmir's historic Ranji Trophy triumph. He particularly caught the eye with an impressive spell against KL Rahul in the final. Nabi further enhanced his credentials on the recent India A tour of Sri Lanka, where he picked up six wickets across two four-day matches.
