The Indian cricket team has suffered a 3-0 defeat in the 3-Test series played against New Zealand. This is the first time that Team India has been clean-swept in a 3-Test series at home. New Zealand has defeated India for the first time in a Test series in India. India has lost a Test series at home after 2012. India’s world-famous batting was a complete flop in this series and was the biggest reason for the team’s defeat. After this extremely disappointing performance, the news that has come from the BCCI can affect the careers of Rohit, Virat, Ashwin, and Jadeja.
BCCI can make a tough decision
According to PTI, the BCCI is unable to digest the 3-0 defeat from New Zealand and a tough decision can be taken against the senior players of the team soon. According to the report, a meeting can soon be held between the BCCI management, chief selector Ajit Agarkar, coach Gautam Gambhir, and the team’s 4 senior players Rohit, Virat, Ashwin, and Jadeja in which a decision can be taken on the future of these players.
Waiting for this series
India’s next tour is to Australia. This 5-Test Border Gavaskar series is very important for the WTC final. If the Indian team performs well and wins the series, then the board may not be seen taking any action. But if India’s performance remains disappointing on this tour as well, then according to the report, at least 2 out of 4 players can be dropped from the Test team. The board can give a chance to young players for the next WTC cycle. The two players who can be dropped are Rohit Sharma and R Ashwin. Let us tell you that Rohit is 37 and Ashwin is 38 years old.
How was the performance?
Rohit and Virat’s performance in the series against New Zealand has been very ordinary. Rohit and Virat could not cross the 100-run mark even after playing 6 innings of 3 Tests. At the same time, Jadeja was effective with the ball but could not show any special impact with the bat. R Ashwin could not make an impact with both the ball and the bat. Despite the spin track, Ashwin could only take 9 wickets in 6 innings of 3 Tests. Jadeja took 16 wickets in 6 innings of 3 Tests but disappointed a lot with the bat. India had to face defeat in the series due to the failure of the senior players. This is the reason why the board has now become strict on these players.
