These 3 veterans will be out of Team India, will they not get a chance against Bangladesh?

SUMMARY

Star players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen playing in the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh, but the return of veterans like Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane and Umesh Yadav to the team seems difficult

Bengaluru: Team India will play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh at home. Soon the BCCI selection committee will announce the names of the players of the Indian cricket team for this Test series. Many star players including Team India captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli will play in this Test series. Winning this series is very important for Team India in view of the upcoming World Test Championship.

There is a strong possibility of young players like Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sarfaraz Khan getting a chance in this Test series. After the series against Bangladesh, Team India will play important Test series against strong teams like New Zealand and Australia. Newly appointed head coach Gautam Gambhir also has the vision of giving maximum opportunities to young players. In such a situation, these five legendary cricketers hoping to make a comeback in Team India may be disappointed once again. After all, who are those three legendary players? Keeping in mind your curiosity, here is the answer.

1. Cheteshwar Pujara: 

Cheteshwar Pujara, known as Team India's Test specialist batsman, played for India for the last time in the final of the World Test Championship last year. Pujara could score only 4 runs in the final against Australia. After this, Pujara was dropped from India's Test team. The number 3 position at which Pujara used to bat is now occupied by Shubman Gill. In such a situation, it seems almost impossible for Pujara to get a place in India's Test team again.

2. Ajinkya Rahane: 

This experienced middle-order batsman from Mumbai, Ajinkya Rahane, remained out of the Indian cricket team for a full one and a half years. But surprisingly, he was included in the Indian team for the final of the World Test Championship. Rahane could not perform well in his comeback match. 36-year-old Rahane has played 85 Test matches for India and scored 5,077 runs. Currently, batsmen like Sarfaraz Khan, Shreyas Iyer are in great form in the middle order, so it will not be surprising if the doors of the Indian Test team are closed for Rahane.

3. Umesh Yadav:

Team India's fast bowler Umesh Yadav has played 57 Test matches so far. In June last year, Umesh Yadav played his last Test match for Team India against Australia. Currently, Siraj, Shami, Bumrah have cemented their place in the fast bowling department in the team, so Umesh's Test cricket career is almost considered to be over.
