'Unko select karke koi meherbani nahi ki': Wasim Jaffer on Bhuvneshwar Kumar's India return

Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s return to India’s T20I squad has received strong backing from former India batter Wasim Jaffer, who believes the experienced pacer’s selection is based on his performances and fitness, rather than any favour. Bhuvneshwar, 36, has been recalled for India’s five-match T20I series against New Zealand, beginning October 22. Jaffer feels the veteran seamer should have been brought back into the national setup earlier.
