New Delhi: Team India captain Rohit Sharma has been leading Team India for quite some time now. His performance as an opener for Team India has been excellent. Along with this, he is also the captain of the World Cup-winning team. In the year 2006, he was a part of India’s Under-19 team.
At that time, there were many players in the team along with Rohit Sharma who later played for the international Team India like him. But at present, there are two players who are waiting for a chance in Team India, one has already reached the age of retirement…
Team India captain Rohit Sharma:
The Indian cricket team currently plays under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. Recently, under his captaincy, Team India has won the T20 World Cup 2024 title. After this, he announced his retirement from T20 International and now he is captaining only in ODIs and Tests. In the year 2006, he (Rohit Sharma) also played the World Cup for the Under 19 Team India. Legendary players like Ravindra Jadeja, Piyush Chawla, Cheteshwar Pujara and Manish Pandey were part of that team.
Pujara is waiting to return to Team India!
Cheteshwar Pujara, who became the wall of Team India after Rahul Dravid, is out of the team these days. He has batted brilliantly in many series for Team India and has played an important role in making the team win. His performance in the Border Gavaskar Trophy has always been excellent. Pujara has played 103 Test matches for India, in which he has scored 7195 runs with an average of 43.60. He was expected to return in the Border Gavaskar Trophy but the selectors did not give him a chance this time.
When can Piyush Chawla retire:
Piyush Chawla made his ODI debut for Team India against the Netherlands in 2011, while he made his Test debut against England in 2012. Piyush has played 28 matches for India in which he has taken 39 wickets. He has not found any buyer in IPL 2025, so it is possible that he may announce his retirement soon.
