- The squad for Champions Trophy 2025 has been announced. This time 4 such players were ignored who can surprise everyone by retiring at a young age….
15 players have been included in Team India’s squad for the Champions Trophy 2025. In which players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Jasprit Bumrah have been selected, while Mohammed Shami and Shreyas Iyer, who have been out for a long time, have returned. However, 4 players were not selected in this ICC event. Who were considered to be big contenders to be selected in the tournament. In such a situation, these players can say goodbye to international cricket by retiring if they do not get a chance in the Champions Trophy. A player has been made fun of for many years in the name of inclusion in the ICC tournament…
1. Yuzvendra Chahal
Team India’s wicket-taking spinner Yuzvendra Chahal was not selected in the squad for the Champions Trophy 2025. While Kuldeep Yadav, who is returning after injury, has been selected. Chahal has not got a chance to play in ICC tournaments for the last several years. However, he was selected in the T20 World Cup last year but could not play any match. Chahal is one of the most unlucky players who is not selected even after performing well throughout the year. In such a situation, 34-year-old Chahal was not selected in the T20 series against England as well. If he continues to be ignored like this, he may announce his retirement in the coming days.
2. Bhuvneshwar Kumar
Bhuvneshwar Kumar, known as the Sultan of Swing, bowled brilliantly in domestic cricket. It is believed that based on his performance, he can be selected for the Champions Trophy 2025. But, Bhuvneshwar Kumar got a big shock. At this time, there is no hope of his return. It seems as if the BCCI has closed the final for him. He played his last match in the year 2022. It is going to be more than 2 years. The doors of his return to Team India have been closed. If sources are to be believed, those who remove the tag of Indian cricketer from their bio can say goodbye to international cricket anytime.
3. Ishan Kishan
Indian team’s wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan was out of Team India due to his actions. He refused to play domestic cricket, not listening to BCCI. But, he decided to enter domestic cricket after IPL 2024. But, in the meantime, Rishabh Pant returned after the car accident while the doors of Team India were closed for Ishan. On the other hand, T20 Sanju Samson has confirmed his place as a keeper batsman. Even if a player like Sanju who performed brilliantly in Champions Trophy 2025 was ignored, Ishan has been out of the team for a long time. If he continues to be dropped from the team like this, then he may be forced to retire at a young age.
4. Shivam Dubey
The fourth and last name in this list is Shivam Dubey. He was selected for the T20 World Cup 2024 last year due to his explosive batting in the IPL. But, the T20 World Cup did not go as per his expectations, due to which he was shown the way out of the team. At the same time, Dubey has also been dropped from the Champions Trophy 2025. He has been replaced by strong all-rounders like Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, and Hardik Pandya. If Shivam Dubey continues to be ignored like this, then he can say goodbye to international cricket and focus his entire attention on league cricket.
