IND vs NZ: New Zealand became the first team to beat India 3-0 in a 3-match Test series on its soil. New Zealand did a feat that no team could do before today. In such a situation, BCCI is looking strict on this defeat. If reports are to be believed, BCCI is unhappy with the performance of senior players and their future can be discussed.

Discussion on the future of senior players

According to the report, BCCI is in a mood to consider the future of senior players like Virat, Rohit, and Jadeja in Test cricket. It is believed that if Team India fails to qualify for the WTC final, then the series against Australia could be the last series for these players.

However, all these discussions will be informal as India will leave for Australia on November 10 where it will play a 5-match Test series. The first match will be played on November 22. The report also said that at present there will be no change in the team for this tour and the same team will go which has been announced, but the selectors and management will keep an eye on the senior players and their performance.

After losing the series against Australia and New Zealand which is essential to reach the WTC Final, now the path of Team India in the World Test Championship has become difficult. In the remaining 5 matches in this cycle, the team now has to win at least 4 matches and draw one match. This clearly means that Rohit and company cannot afford even a single tour of Australia.
