Hardik has dealt with recurring injuries and workload management issues. He last played in an ODI during the 2025 Champions Trophy final and recently missed the T20I and ODI series against England due to injury. Gautam Gambhir selected Shivam Dube and Suryansh Shedge for the respective series.
"If Hardik is not there, it's Nitish Kumar Reddy and then Shivam Dube. There is no point in harping about players that are not ready to play in your combination. If they are injured, they are injured. That's par for the course in any sport."
Ravichandran Ashwin Compares Rahul Dravid and Gautam Gambhir's Approaches
"Look at the 2023 World Cup, which just fizzled out because Hardik wasn't part of the combination. But the moment it fizzled out, they were not searching and they did not try to play the sixth bowler. They skinned the cat differently and went with five bowlers."
"This bits and pieces has been a fascination for this management. That's probably why we have struggled in Tests as Tests are firmly for the specialists. It's match-winners with the ball and bat that this management needs to keep at the top of their mind."
Ravichandran Ashwin calls for a settled squad before the 2027 ODI World Cup
"There needs to be clarity before any discussions about personnel. Go to 17/18 players and tell them that we are going to pick the squad from that pool and they play the next 14 months, whoever that be."
"It has to have two keepers, three spinners and five pacers. Rotate the players in this pool with the vision of putting the best 11, come the first day of the World Cup. As of now, it's lacking a lot of clarity."
