Domestic giants such as Rajat Patidar, Rahul Tripathi, Umran Malik, and Shahbaz Ahmed can still try to get a slot in the top 15 for the ICC World Cup 2023. The Indian team will be keenly looking for a good spin combination as the World Cup will be played in India, where tracks are very spin friendly.

Rehabilitation programs will be organized for special players or players of the elite division. Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya, and Jasprit Bumrah are a few injury-prone players who are irreplaceable.
