Batting great Sunil Gavaskar came down hard on India's decision not to make any changes and not to give the likes of Cheteshwar Pujara and Ishwar Pandey a look-in at the international level.

He accused the team management of trying to protect their 'favourite players'.

"It is very hard to understand. If you are not going to give the reserve players an opportunity, then when will give them a chance to play."

"Are you worried that if Cheteshwar Pujara and Ishwar Pandey do well, what happens to our favourite players?," asked an angry Gavaskar.
