Jay Shah: We all know how competitive cricket is in India. Players have to work hard to make their place in the team and they have to score a lot of runs. Meanwhile, there are 3 such players who may not even get a place in the Ranji team in the coming times.

These are three such players who may hardly be seen playing in the Ranji Trophy in the coming times. There is a very big reason behind this, which may be a special strategy of Jay Shah, the secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and three players are involved in it.

Cheteshwar Pujara

Indian team's veteran batsman Cheteshwar Pujara has been out of Team India for some time now. Pujara is playing county cricket as he did not get a place in Team India and is out of Team India.

Actually, BCCI has announced all the teams for Duleep Trophy 2024 but Pujara's name is not included in it. Young players have been given a chance in this team, while players playing international cricket are also included. In such a situation, if the same strategy is adopted in Ranji Trophy, then he will not get a place.

Ajinkya Rahane

India's star batsman Ajinkya Rahane has led Team India to victory in many matches on the basis of his batting. However, he too has not been selected for the Duleep Trophy. In such a situation, Jay Shah's strategy is clearly visible that he is going to give a chance to young players keeping in mind the future of India.

Rahane last played a match for Team India a year ago and since then he has been dropped from the team. In such a situation, the suspense remains on whether he will be selected for the Ranji Trophy or not.

Umesh Yadav

Team India's star pacer Umesh Yadav is among those players who are constantly in and out of Team India. This player has performed well but despite this, he has been dropped from the team and now his name is not included in the Duleep Trophy as well.

Yadav last played a match for Team India against Australia in 2023. In such a situation, it will be very interesting to see whether Jay Shah will give him a chance in the Ranji Trophy or not.
