Bhuvneshwar Kumar Says India Comeback Is No Longer His Main GoalPreviousNext

Veteran Indian pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who last played for India in 2022, has expressed contentment with his current status outside the national team. He credits his family for helping him accept this transition without regret, noting that cricket is not discussed at home. Bhuvneshwar continues to play in the IPL and domestic leagues purely out of passion, emphasizing discipline and balance between playing and rest. While open to future opportunities, he no longer views a national comeback as his primary goal.
