Indian pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar has said that he has made peace with the fact he is no longer part of the national setup, crediting his family in helping him come to terms with the reality. The 36-year-old, whose last India appearance came in 2022, said that having no discussions about the game at home played a big role in ensuring he carried no regrets.
“I am at peace, and I give credit to my family. At home, we never talk about cricket. We never talk about whether I’ll get back into the Indian team, why I wasn’t selected, or what went wrong. That played a big role, and there is no regret. When you’re a core member of a team, everyone says: “Team comes first.” But when you’re no longer in the team, naturally you feel: “Maybe I should still be there,” Bhuvneshwar told the RCB Podcast.
