I Never Call Selectors & Ask Why Angry Sheldon Jackson Reacts After Being Ignored Repeatedly

There is a lot of competition in the Indian cricketing circles nowadays and it has become very difficult for a player to make it to the national playing eleven. There are many talented players who have performed superbly in the domestic cricket but they haven’t been able to get a place in the Indian team.

If we talk about the recent times, Sarfaraz Khan and Abhimanyu Easwaran are two names who have performed in a great manner in domestic cricket but they were not considered for the West Indies tour by the selectors. Sarfaraz Khan has been in a great form and he scored more than 900 runs in successive Ranji seasons but still he was not selected by the selectors and this led to a huge uproar among the Indian cricket community and cricket fans.

On the other hand, the Saurashtra batter Sheldon Jackson who will turn 37 in September this year is still hopeful of getting a national call. Sheldon Jackson has slammed the selectors many times because he was told that he is a good player but he is over 30 and they are choosing players under 30 yrs of age only.

Recently, Sheldon Jackson appeared in an interview in which he stated that he draws inspiration from Dinesh Karthik and MS Dhoni. While DK managed to make a comeback in the Indian team at the age of 37 yrs, MS Dhoni led his IPL team Chennai Super Kings to their fifth title win at the age of 41.

Sheldon Jackson says that he gets motivated whenever he sees DK and MSD. Talking about Dinesh Karthik, Sheldon said that he was with the wicketkeeper-batter in Kolkata Knight Riders and has witnessed his transformation and at this stage of his career, DK is a motivation for him.

Sheldon Jackson further says that if he had not been good enough, he wouldn’t have played more than 90 first class matches and his average wouldn’t have been around 50 runs. He adds that a player can make an impact only if he gets a chance, he can’t question anyone else’s selection but he can talk about himself, however he has never called a selector and asked about his non-selection.

Though Sheldon Jackson didn’t play in the IPL 2023, he will be playing in domestic level for Saurashtra and we wish him luck for his future endeavors.

Do you think Sheldon Jackson has a chance of getting call for the national team if he performs in an extraordinary manner in domestic level? Let us know your views.
