The official went on to mention that a goalkeeper who chooses to skip the Ranji Trophy for personal reasons is free to join the team if he wishes.

“It’s my personal opinion, but the information the Chief Selection Officer/BCCI conveyed to him (Saha) is private. He probably shouldn’t have made it public.
