Khoda further insisted that he felt Jadeja was under-bowled and that India could have opted for another player who could have suited the conditions.

The former Indian opener also mentioned that some of the players like Shardul Thakur and Mohammed Siraj should have been rewarded for their superlative shows in Australia.
Khoda also expressed surprise over Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s omission from the team, further adding that the seamer should have been picked for his ability to move the ball both ways.
