BCCI Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar unveiled India's 17-member squad for the Asia Cup on Monday.
Many were stunned that Yuzvendra Chahal, the brilliant leg-spinner, was not picked in the team.
Chahal took to X and shared a positive message using emoticons, suggesting that brighter days are ahead.
Dhanashree Verma, Chahal's wife, took to Instagram to share a story that may reveal how the couple really feels about his exclusion: 'Now I've begun to ponder: Can being exceptionally reserved and introverted hinder your professional progress? Should we all strive to be extroverted and street-smart to flourish in life?'
