‘Felt Humiliated and Embarrassed’ Hanuma Vihari Says He Will Never Play for Andhra Again, Alleges Political Interference in Being Asked To Resign From Captaincy
The right-hander shared how he even batted left-handed with a fractured forearm to help Andhra in a match in last year's Ranji Trophy quarterfinal against the same opposition-Madhya Pradesh. Hanuma Vihari last played a Test match for India in 2022.
Hanuma Vihari shared that he felt 'humiliated and embarrassed' as he alleged political interference in being asked to resign from Andhra captaincy. Taking to social media, the former Andhra skipper narrated the incident of him shouting at a 17th player, who later went on to complain to his father, a politician. Vihari shares that he did not say 'anything on a personal note' but the association was asked by the politician to have him quit captaincy. "I never said anything on a personal note to the player but the association thought that player was more important than the guy who gave his body on the line last year and batted left-handed, took Andhra to knock outs 5 times in the last 7 years and played for India in 16 tests," a part of Vihari's note read. Andhra, led by Ricky Bhui, suffered a four-run defeat to Madhya Pradesh in the Ranji Trophy 2023-24 quarterfinals on February 26.
