After World Cup loss, India is touring West Indies to play three games of ODI, T20 and two Test matches.
“The selectors will meet in Mumbai on July 19. We have not heard from Dhoni but what is relevant is the communication between the player and selectors. If you ask me, Dhoni did well in the World Cup but he is his own man. Only he can decide whether he wants to carry on or not,” a BCCI official told the Times of India.
Virat Kohli and Bumrah might not be a part of the squad touring WI for white ball matches, but they may be part of test matches. Dhawan is thought to be recovering from his thumb injury he picked up during World Cup.
Dhoni and Dhawan had earlier asked to be rested from domestic matches ahead of the World Cup. “The question arises that who is allowing the players to pick and choose? Are they taking the call themselves or are they duly informing the selectors? The general feeling is that there needs to be better communication on this issue. You can’t pick and choose. Most World Cup bound players played all the games in the IPL and did not ask for rest back then," said another BCCI official, reports Sports Cafe.
