The ODI World Cup 2023 is going to start from October 5 in the hosting of India. At present, before this, a total of 6 teams including India and Pakistan are busy playing the Asia Cup. Meanwhile, the BCCI has announced India’s 15-member squad for the ODI World Cup to be played in the month of October-November this year. The fans were eagerly waiting to know the squad of the Indian team, which is finally complete with this announcement.
In such a situation, when the squad has finally come for the World Cup, then the Indian fans have become even more excited about this tournament. But in the meantime, the fans of Team India are also angry with the BCCI for not selecting many veteran players in the team.
This displeasure of the fans is due to the absence of names of many big players in this list issued by the BCCI. Due to which the fans on social media are attacking BCCI fiercely, calling it injustice. The players who have been shown the way out of the team. The names of Shikhar Dhawan, Sanju Samson, R Ashwin, Bhuneshwar Kumar and Yuzvendra Chahal are prominent among them. At the same time, Tilak Verma and the famous Krishna, who were selected in the Asia Cup, have also not got a chance in this upcoming tournament.
While these veteran players were not given a chance in the World Cup squad, KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav, who did not play a single match in the Asia Cup, got tickets to the World Cup very comfortably. Due to which 3 veteran players of India have suffered the biggest blow. The reason for which is that if he had been a part of this ODI World Cup, it would have been his last World Cup, but now he has not been included in the World Cup squad, so there are possibilities that Shikhar Dhawan, R Ashwin and Bhuvneshwar Kumar Can retire from ODI format.
The reason for which is also that Shikhar Dhawan played the last match of his One Day International cricket career against Bangladesh on 10 December 2022. At the same time, R Ashwin played his last ODI against South Africa on 21 January 2022. While Bhuvneshwar Kumar also played last ODI on same date.
In such a situation, this date makes it clear that the team management will hardly give these three players a chance in the next ODI when the young players are performing well. Looking at this, these three players can announce their decision to retire soon from their One Day International cricket career.
