Sunil Gavaskar vent out his anger over the Chetan Sharma-led All India Selection Committee for ignoring Sarfaraz Khan, despite the batter going through a tremendous form in domestic circuit.

During an interaction with India Today, Gavaskar said that Sarfaraz is not staying off the field after scoring hundreds. All that tells you that the man is fit for cricket.

'If you are looking for only slim and trim guys, then you might as well go to a fashion show and pick some models and then give them a bat and ball in their hand and then include them. You have cricketers in all shapes and sizes. Don't go by the size, but go by the runs and the wickets, the former India skipper added.

Earlier, Sarfaraz had admitted that he cried after not getting picked for India's first two Tests against Australia.
