At the same time, another senior player has also decided to take a big step like retirement after being upset with the chief selector Ajit Agarkar. Let us know in detail, which legendary cricketer are we talking about.

Ajit Agarkar took over as the chief selector in the year 2023. During his tenure, he brightened the fortunes of many young players and gave them the opportunity to play international cricket for India. However, during this time Agarkar constantly ignored some veteran senior cricketers.

One of those names is that of opener Shikhar Dhawan. This left-handed batsman played his last international match in the year 2022. Since then, he has been out of the team. Dhawan's displeasure was also reflected during an interview where he clearly told the selectors not to select him in the team.

Instructed not to be selected in Team India

Shikhar Dhawan gave an interview to Aaj Tak last year. During this, he openly discussed all the aspects related to his career. While answering a question, Dhawan also expressed his displeasure towards the selectors of Team India. Also, the 38-year-old cricketer appealed to them to give a chance to young players like Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan in his place.

Such has been his international career

Left-handed batsman Shikhar Dhawan made his international cricket debut for India in 2010. Since then, he has represented his country in 34 Tests, 167 ODIs and 68 T20s. He has 2315 runs in Tests, 6793 runs in ODIs and 1759 runs in T20s. This explosive batsman has 24 centuries and 55 half-centuries to his credit in international cricket.
