The Tripura selector Jayanta Dey required Wriddhiman Saha after Kishan had rejected his pick, and he was also contacted. ”
To be fair to Wriddhiman, he stated that India hopefuls should compete in the Duleep Trophy. It makes no sense to prevent a young person from making a case if I will never play for India. As a result, we chose Abhishek Porel, our third choice,” he added.
