At present, the Indian team is participating in a big mega event like the T20 World Cup under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma and the performance of the Indian team in this tournament is very impressive. This T20 World Cup is very special for the Indian team because by winning this mega event, the Indian team is trying to end the drought of ICC events that has been going on for more than a decade.
After the T20 World Cup 2024, many senior players of Team India may think of saying goodbye to this format. If media reports are to be believed, these senior players will now play for the Indian team only in the big format.
For the T20 World Cup, the BCCI management has sent a mixed group of senior and junior players and all the players have impressed with their performance.
But now it is being said that the senior players of Team India will never be seen again after this tournament.If media reports are to be believed, Team India captain Rohit Sharma, excellent batsman Virat Kohli and deadly fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will not play for the Indian team in this format again after the T20 World Cup.

All three of these players have been representing the Indian team in T20 cricket for a long time and due to this it is very difficult for any junior player to make a place in the team. Apart from this, there are many big format tournaments in the coming time and due to this reason these senior players can consider saying goodbye to this format after the T20 World Cup. At the same time, there is also talk of giving a chance to young players in place of these players in T20 cricket.
After the T20 World Cup, Team India has to play many important Test series and these Test series are very important from the perspective of 'World Test Championship 2025'. It is being said that all the senior players of Team India will distance themselves from the shorter format for this Test series only. At the same time, in the beginning of the year 2025, the Indian team also has to participate in the Champions Trophy and this tournament is also important for Indian cricket.
