ControversyIn 2002, Srinath became upset when he was asked to take a break by the national selector after the West Indies tour. Later, he went to England, where he started playing county cricket, and during this time the national Indian team was also on a tour to England. In an interview, Srinath expressed his anguish over the issue. He said, "I think before the World Cup, we had toured West Indies Without my knowledge, the selectors told me I had to take a break. Generally, we used to have a talk and then I used to volunteer saying ‘look I need a break. But this time they just said ‘we’re giving you a break’ and that didn’t go well with me. Obviously, I was a little upset. I didn’t want my career to be played in the hands of anybody."Relationships & MoreMarital StatusMarriedMarriage Date• First Marriage: Year, 1999
