"I know there’s a Champions Trophy coming up [in 2025], and if I’m playing decent cricket still in two years’ time and they need someone, I’m going to be available."   READ MORE : Kohli’s indefinite break from ODIs, T20Is : BCCI in the dark   ## Related on this site - [All You Need To Know About The 5 Most Loved International Cricket Players In India](/blog/top-international-cricket-player) - [3 players with ₹1.5 crore base price who might go unsold at the IPL 2023 auction ](/games/blog/%e2%82%b91-5-crore-base-price-who-might-go-unsold-at-the-ipl-2023-auction) - [Hardik Pandya: Weareone](/blog/hardik-pandya)
