Andhra바카라s campaign in the ongoing Ranji Trophy came to an end when they lost to Madhya Pradesh by four runs in the quarterfinals on Monday.
바카라The sad part is the association thinks that players have to listen to whatever they say and players are there because of them. I바카라ve decided that I바카라ll never play for Andhra where I lost my self-respect.
"I love the team. I love the way we바카라re growing every season but the association doesn바카라t want us to grow,바카라 Vihari wrote on Instagram.
The middle-order batter, who has played 16 Tests for India, started the season as Andhra captain but stepped down after the first match against last year바카라s runners-up Bengal.
Ricky Bhui led the team for the rest of the season, and he now leads the season바카라s run chart with 902 runs.
At the time, Vihari attributed his decision to move away from leadership role due to 바카라personal reasons바카라 but now the right-handed batter said the association had asked him to resign.
바카라I 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.
"Although we chased 410 against last year바카라s finalists Bengal, I was asked to resign from captaincy without any fault of mine,바카라 said Vihari.
The 30-year-old said he has put his body on the line for the team, recalling last year바카라s Ranji Trophy quarterfinal match against Madhya Pradesh.
A forearm injury to his right hand had forced him to bat left-handed in that game, but he could not prevent Andhra바카라s ouster.
바카라I 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 knockouts 5 times in the last 7 years and played for India in 16 Tests.
"I felt embarrassed but the only reason I continued playing this season was because I respect the game and my team,바카라 he added.
