Chennai, Nov 25 (NationPress) Renowned filmmaker and actor Selvaraghavan, who is the elder sibling of actor Dhanush, has expressed his curiosity regarding the absence of Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah as the captain of the current test team, which is presently battling to prevent a loss in the second test against South Africa in Guwahati.

In a post on his X profile, Selvaraghavan remarked, "As a devoted cricket enthusiast, I can’t help but wonder. Why isn’t @Jaspritbumrah93 leading the team? #bestbowlerintheworld #superblyintelligent @BCCI @GautamGambhir."

His hashtags clearly illustrate that he views Bumrah as a highly intelligent cricketer and the finest in the world.

While many fans appreciated his post, several users responded to his inquiry. One follower pointed out that Bumrah himself had stated he could not fulfill the role of test captain due to fitness concerns. This user elaborated that Bumrah believed a captain should participate in every match, which he is currently unable to do.

It’s worth noting that actor and director Dhanush previously humorously shared at a film event how Selvaraghavan would often cheat during their childhood cricket games.

Dhanush mentioned, "I was quite mischievous as a child. However, my brother Selvaraghavan was even more mischievous. He was shy and reserved, especially in front of the camera, but at home, he was full of energy."

The actor continued in a light-hearted manner, "Being eight years older, he appeared larger while I looked smaller. He would invite me to play cricket and would always find a way to win the toss and choose to bat first. As a younger kid, I struggled to get him out. I would bowl for hours, and he would keep batting. Eventually, when I finally managed to dismiss him, he would drop the bat and run off, refusing to let me bowl to him. Most of the time, I ended up just bowling without getting a turn to bat."
