Ranji Trophy | Disgruntled Hanuma Vihari not to play for Andhra again

Hanuma Vihari has decided that he will never play for Andhra — a team where he lost his ‘self-respect’.

Shortly after losing to Madhya Pradesh in the quarterfinals of the Ranji Trophy on Monday, the seasoned Vihari wrote on his social media handles that he’s moving on from Andhra due to ‘humiliation’.

Despite being named the skipper for the season, Vihari relinquished captaincy ahead of Andhra’s second game against Mumbai in January. “This post is about some facts that I want to put forward. I was the captain in the first game against Bengal, during that game I shouted at the 17th player and he complained to his dad (who is a politician). His dad in return asked the Association to take action against me (sic),” Vihari wrote on his social media handles.
