The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) recently publicized the central contracts for the Indian men's cricket team, sparking varied discussions and debates because of significant adjustments . Players of the likes of Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were omitted . Addressing the issue, veteran Indian wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha pointed out that nothing can be enforced upon a player who chooses not to engage in domestic cricket.

Importance of domestic cricket is always there: Wriddhiman Saha

Saha emphasized the importance of valuing every match, drawing from his personal insights. "Whenever I am fit, I play; even I played club matches, office matches as well. I always treat a match as a match. All matches are equal for me. If every player thinks on those lines, they will only prosper in their career and it will be better for Indian cricket as well," he added.

Saha believes excelling in cricket demands a deep appreciation for domestic cricket. He pointed out Sarfaraz Khan's prolific performance in domestic tournaments prior to his national call-up."I feel the importance of domestic cricket is always there because if I talk about Sarfaraz Khan, he had scored plenty of runs in the last 4-5 years. He has delivered," the keeper said.
