Gautam Gambhir: Team India got its first new head coach from the Sri Lanka tour. After the departure of Rahul Dravid, BCCI has handed over a big responsibility to Gautam Gambhir. Gauti has done many experiments in the team selected for the Sri Lanka tour. He has given more importance to young players.

Senior players like Ravindra Jadeja have been shown the way out. This makes one thing clear that Gambhir is going to give more opportunities to the youth during his tenure. This means that the career of 3 "old" players of the team will end, who are still waiting for a chance. Let us know about these Indian cricketers in detail.

Gautam Gambhir will not allow the return of 3 players

Ishant Sharma:

Tall fast bowler Ishant Sharma has represented Team India in 105 Tests, 80 ODIs and 14 T20 matches. He has taken 311 wickets in Tests, 115 in ODIs and 8 wickets in T20s. However, this 35-year-old player has been looking for a chance to return to the Indian team for about 3 years.

However, after Gautam Gambhir's arrival, this is hardly possible now. Apart from Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, Arshdeep Singh, there are many young pacers in the team right now. Due to them, Ishant will never be able to play international cricket again.

Vriddhiman Saha:

Team India's senior wicketkeeper batsman Wriddhiman Saha made his debut in international cricket in 2010. Since then, this player has played 40 Tests and 9 ODIs for India. He has scored 1353 runs in Tests and 41 runs in ODIs.

However, this 39-year-old player has not played a single international match after 2021. Considering the number of young players entering the Indian team, it would not be wrong to say that Saha's international career is now over. Now it remains to be seen when he announces his retirement.

Umesh Yadav:

If we talk about the most successful fast bowlers from India on home soil, then Umesh Yadav's name will be included at the top of the list. The right-handed pacer has played 57 Tests, 75 ODIs and 9 T20 matches in his career. Umesh has 170 wickets in Tests, 106 in ODIs and 12 in T20s.

However, he has not played international cricket for the last one year. In such a situation, retirement is the only option left for him.
