Speaking to ANI, the Patna-based player said that he will perform in the upcoming opportunities to gain the selector's confidence through hard work. "I feel that what selectors do is fair. They put a lot of thought while selecting players as to who should be given the opportunity and where. It is a positive for me because if I am not selected, I will work harder and score more runs. When selectors will have confidence in me, they will obviously keep me in the team." ANI@ANIPatna, Bihar Whatever has happened is fair. Selectors think a lot of things before selecting players.
