After joining Harshit Rana in India’s squad, India a pacer shared a cryptic “karma” message

In a cricketing nation as rich in talent as India, selection heartbreaks are inevitable. With the national pool packed with gifted players, missing out on the senior team isn’t uncommon, and nor is the disappointment that follows.

India pacer Mukesh Kumar, who is not part of the squad for the five-Test series against England, appeared to express his emotions through a cryptic Instagram story on Tuesday. Just two days before the first Test in Leeds, Mukesh posted, “Karma bides its time. You will always have to watch out. Karma is unforgiving and always gets payback.”
