Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara
Rohit Sharma has now announced retirement from Test cricket. That is, now they will be able to play only one format. Rohit Sharma announced his retirement from T20 International by winning the T20 World Cup in 2024. However, he will continue to play ODI now. Meanwhile, even though Rohit Sharma has pulled back from the Test, but two players from India are still not playing Tests, but they have not lost courage yet. That is, they are still expecting a comeback, but their comeback looks very difficult.
Rohit Sharma will not be part of India’s Test team now
The Indian team cricket team is going to visit England next month i.e. June. A five -Test series will be played between India and England. Which is going to be very important, as it will be part of the World Test Championship. Now Rohit Sharma will not be seen in it. Rohit Sharma’s Test career has been great, there is no doubt, but his form was missing for some time. This was the reason that when Team India visited Australia, Rohit Sharma had taken himself out of the playing XI despite being the captain.
Ajinkya Rahane is still waiting for a comeback
Meanwhile, two players of India should be talked about, who are still waiting for a comeback, they are Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara. Ajinkya Rahane played his last Test against the West Indies in July 2023. Since then, he has not been given a place in the test. Now they are part of the Future for the BCCI selection committee or not, it is difficult to say. However, Rahane has not lost hope. Rahane is already out of the ODI and T20 teams, that is, they have the same means of wearing Bharat Jersey, which is a Test, but they will again be seen in the Indian team’s jersey, it is very less likely.
Cheteshwar Pujara is also not able to return yet
If you talk about another player, then he is Cheteshwar Pujara. Pujara played his last Test match for India in June 2023, after which he was also forgotten. He too has not announced retired yet. Like Rahane, they are not part of ODI and T20. At one time Cheteshwar Pujara was called the wall of India, but the situation has changed. Now that Team India will be announced for the England series, it will be monitored, but it has to be seen whether Rahane and Pujara will return. Although the possibility is very low, but you have to see and wait.
