There is something very strict about fitness in Team India. If a player cannot pass the yo-yo test after being selected on the team, he will be dropped from the team. Under the leadership of skipper Virat Kohli, fitness is of utmost importance with the skill of the players. Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag has made some statements about the yo-yo test. If it is compulsory to pass the yo-yo test, then cricketers Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and V.V.S. Sehwag has said that Laxman will never pass.
Recently, Varun Chakraborty and Rahul Tiwati, who were selected in Team India, were dropped because they could not pass the yo-yo exam. Captain Virat Kohli said at the press conference that all players must meet the fitness criteria set by Team India, only then they will be able to play for the team. Sehwag said that when there was a Yo-Yo test in his time, Sachin, Ganguly and Laxman could not reach 12.5 points. In Sehwag Krikbuz, ‘I want to tell you one thing: We are here for yo-yo testing. Speaking of passing, Hardik Pandya has no trouble running, his problem is workload management. At the same time, Ashwin and Varun Chakraborty did not pass the fitness test.
Sehwag said, ‘This is the reason why they are not on the team, but I do not believe it. If it had been earlier, Sachin, Ganguly and Laxman would never have passed the exam, I would not have seen them pass the beep. He was always trailing by 12.5. Skills are important, if you play with a fitness team, but the players don’t have the skills, you can increase fitness and in such a situation it will be different. If a player can bowl 10 overs, that should be enough.
