1. Cheteshwar Pujara
Cheteshwar Pujara has been one of the important players of the Indian team in Test cricket. He has participated in many important matches in Test cricket on behalf of the Indian team.
However, Cheteshwar Pujara has not been seen playing international cricket for a long time. He played his last match in the final of the World Test Championship against Australia. Cheteshwar Pujara has been playing in the England County Championship for some time now and has left his mark here too.
For some time now, the Indian team has also given many young players a chance in the Test format and they have also performed very well in it. It seems very difficult for Cheteshwar Pujara to return to the Indian team now and this is the reason why he may retire from international cricket very soon.
