Gujarat Giants gave bewildering reasoning for my omission: Deandra Dottin

West Indian Deandra Dottin expressed disappointment at her exclusion from Women's Premier League franchise Gujarat Giants, terming it 'bewildering'.

In a social media post, Dottin said she was transparent about correspondence with the Gujarat Giants physiotherapist.

The 31-year-old also stated that her chat with physio was misconstrued and later conveyed to members of the franchise's management team that she was "experiencing abdominal pain post-session", which was not what she had indicated.

Previously, the Caribbean all-rounder was signed for ₹60 lakh by the Adani-owned side, but before the start of the tournament, she was excluded from the squad on medical grounds.

The Giants had stated that Dottin failed to get medical clearance by the deadline, which was why they replaced her with Australia's Kim Garth. But Dottin refuted the claims made by the franchise.
