Ravindra Jadeja hasn't been at his best in Tests and ODIs recently. Although he has played a few vital innings with the bat in Tests, his returns in ODI cricket have been diminishing of late.
A BCCI source revealed about Gautam Gambhir's vision for India's ODI future. The source claimed that Gambhir wants to create a strong base for the ODI World Cup and Jadeja's future will be decided as well.
"It's all about when the selectors decide the transition needs to kick in. They will discuss if they want to go with a safe option in Jadeja or move on right now," he added.
Jadeja likely to remain in Tests
"When it comes to Test cricket, Jadeja is still fairly in contention for the England tour due to lack of experience in the middle order. But the selectors will have to take a call during the home season," the source said
Axar Patel likely to replace Ravindra Jadeja
Axar Patel is seen as Ravindra Jadeja's replacement as the left-arm spin bowling allrounder. Patel's batting and bowling have grown over the years and he has shown that he has the skill required for international cricket.
Patel has been promoted above the batting order at times too. The source also confirmed that Kuldeep Yadav is likely to be fit before the Champions Trophy and his fitness has been closely monitored.
ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be played from February 19 to March 9. The tournament will be hosted jointly by Pakistan and UAE. Most of the matches will be played in Pakistan but India's matches will be held in Dubai.
