This promising player will return to Team India

Hanuman Vihari

Hanuma Vihari, one of the best middle-order batsmen who made his debut for Team India in 2018, is out of the team today.

He played his last international match against England in 2022. In this match, scores of 20 and 11 came from his bat.

However, when he played the last match, he played a great innings. Despite this, he was not given many opportunities under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. Vihari contributed a lot to the Indian team in winning the Border Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. Team India is going to play many Test series in the coming one year.
