BGT has ended the careers of six players including Dhoni, Sehwag, now it’s Rohit and Virat’s turn!

India, who lost their number one crown in the WTC points table to Australia, have won their last two Test tours of Australia. However, in the meantime, the team coached by Gautam Gambhir has repeatedly flopped in batting on its home ground, which has become a cause of great tension for Team India before this Australia tour. India’s experienced batting line-up failed to score runs, which also included flop shows from big players like captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. While Rohit scored 91 runs in six innings against the Kiwis, Kohli scored only 93 runs. After the flop of these two batsmen in this series, questions are now being raised about their future in Test cricket. Fans and some experts have even said that the time for his retirement is near, especially if India fails to make it to the upcoming WTC final. Interestingly, if we look at the history of BGT, six Indian legends ended their careers by playing this series. These six players ended their careers by playing Border-Gavaskar The Test career of 6 big players of India has ended with the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, which includes the names of former captain MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly, Anil Kumble, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman and Virender Sehwag. The Test career of these great players came to a complete halt after this series. His last series was the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

MI can retain these players including Hardik, Bumrah – Harbhajan Singh made a big prediction

The performance of Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024 was very disappointing. Hardik Pandya, Harbhajan Singh and Rohit Sharma. (Image Source: Instagram) Team India’s former veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh has asked which players can Mumbai Indians (MI) retain before the mega auction of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season? Discussed this. Mumbai India’s performance in the last three seasons was not good. Rohit Sharma was the captain for two seasons and Hardik Pandya was the captain last season, but the team still could not perform well. Now what will be the team’s strategy for the next three years? This will be decided by what decision the team takes in retention. However, meanwhile, Harbhajan expressed uncertainty about the franchise retaining former captain Rohit Sharma. However, he stressed that if the team decides to retain the fourth player, Rohit’s name should undoubtedly be there. Harbhajan Singh gave a big statement regarding MI’s IPL retention. Harbhajan Singh said in the Star Sports show, “Mumbai Indians is a team which has not performed well in the last two-three years. MI has been a champion team, a very good team, and as far as I know, they will definitely be thinking about building a team for the future, but that doesn’t mean they won’t add experienced players this year. . Last year they made Hardik Pandya the captain and I think he will definitely be retained. Jasprit Bumrah will also be retained and Suryakumar Yadav will also be retained.” Bhajji further said about Rohit Sharma, “However, the question is whether Rohit Sharma will be retained? He has just won the World Cup as captain, so I think he should be retained, and he will be retained. This will make four players and if there is a fifth player, then Tilak Verma will be retained. Tilak Verma is one of those players who will be very useful in winning matches for Mumbai Indians in the future.” He further said, “Talking about bowling, I don’t think they would like to retain anyone else apart from Bumrah, so Nehal Wadhera can be a good option for them as an uncapped player. That is why he should be selected.”
