Nitish Rana Shared A Cryptic Post After Getting Ignored For India’s T20I Squad Against WI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India has announced the Indian T20I squad for the upcoming 5-match T20I series against West Indies.
The Indian squad for the series was pretty much on the expected lines, with senior players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Ravindra Jadeja making space for youngsters like Tilak Varma and Yashasvi Jaiswal. Ajit Agarkar laid down the 15 names he feels are best suited to take Indian cricket forward under the guidance of Hardik Pandya.
It has to be noted that, as many as six players were dropped from the T20I squad that was picked for the New Zealand series at home which includes Ruturaj Gaikwad, Washington Sundar, Prithvi Shaw, Rahul Tripathi, Jitesh Sharma and Deepak Hooda. However, there are chances that some of these names might feature in the squad that tours Ireland.

But another out-of-favor player whose name didn’t feature among the 15-member squad was KKR’s stand-in captain Nitish Rana. Both Rana and his teammate Rinku Singh were tipped to get a break into the squad but they weren’t picked.
Shortly after the team was announced, Nitish Rana took to his social media and shared a cryptic tweet. The Tweet read: “Bad days build better days”

For the unversed, Rana has played one ODI and three T20Is for India, the latter dating back to his debut series against Sri Lanka in July of 2021. Ever since then, Rana has done amazingly well in domestic cricket. He was the fourth-highest scorer in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2022-23, scoring 317 runs from 8 games at an average of 45.28 including a century and a fifty each.
He carried his form in the 2023 edition of the Indian Premier League, where he led the Kolkata Knight Riders in place of the injured Shreyas Iyer. He led the team by example, scoring 413 runs including three half-centuries.
