In an exclusive chat with Shanivi Sadana on Sportskeeda’s Facebook page, Wassan spoke about how certain issues have damaged the production of quality cricketers from the state.

“Age fudging is denting Delhi cricket”

A former Indian cricketer who played 4 Tests and 9 ODIs for the country, Wassan also represented Delhi cricket for more than a decade, after making his debut in 1986. Wassan was named as the chairman of the Delhi & District Cricket Association in August 2019 but was sacked from the role a few months later, in December.

Wassan shed light on the issues such as favouritism towards players, selection issues that are currently plaguing Delhi cricket.

The 52-year-old former India cricketer further spoke on age fudging, a problem which has also dented the growth of Delhi cricket over the last few years.

While Delhi cricket has produced a number of star cricketers such as Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan among others, the team last won its Ranji Trophy title back in the 2007-08 season, and the new crop of cricketers will be hoping to end the title drought soon.
