Selection Day can be considered as drama comedy because of it's satirical approach towards the characters obsession to cricket.
There is nothing wrong with the show. Great character development and episode structure.
Though initially I was not sure whether I would like the tone of the show. But I must say I am quite intrigued by the show and now I am looking forward for the next season.
Edit after Part 2: After watching the second part, I am changing my initial rating of 9 to 6. One of the main reasons is the shoddy screenplay. Neither the dialogues were appropriate nor the scenes were going away with the plot. In fact it was very hard for me to understand what was going on screen.
The incoherently executed finale was a total let down. It seemed like I was watching some school skit, and definitely not a Netflix Original.
It totally lost track of its central themes. The character motivations were inconsistent like Mercury.
Weird show. I expected a lot after watching the promising first part.
