5. Wriddhiman Saha
Wriddhiman Saha is the first player on this list. Saha is a wicketkeeper-batsman who last played for the Indian team in December 2021 in a Test series against New Zealand. Even after almost more than a year, Saha has not made a comeback to the Indian Test team.
IPL 2023 | India National Cricket Team | Chennai Super Kings (CSK) | Delhi Capitals (DC) | Gujarat Titans (GT) | Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) | Lucknow Supergiants (LSG) | Mumbai Indians (MI) | Punjab Kings (PBKS) | Rajasthan Royals (RR) | Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) | SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH)
The 38-year-old Saha is not seen by selectors as a good future prospect for the wicketkeeper. In the recent Test series against Australia, Saha was not picked despite Pant not being available for the series. The team went ahead with uncapped KS Bharat as wicketkeeper.
Hence, Saha must be aware that his comeback to the Test team is almost impossible and he might announce his retirement from the longest format after ICC World Test Championship 2021-23.
