Shockingly, the cricketer announced his retirement in forms of cricket. Rayudu was not included in India’s original 15-member squad for the World Cup 2019 and all-rounder Vijay Shankar was preferred over him. Chief selector MSK Prasad had stated that Shankar’s 3-dimensional qualities made them pick him over Rayudu, who wasn’t too happy with the decision.

Rayudu initially criticized the selectors for not picking him in India’s squad that travelled to England and was also not called up following injuries to and Vijay Shankar, with Pant and Agarwal selected instead of him.

many speculating that the tweet he posted against the BCCI”s decision costed him the cricketing career. “Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup 😉😋..” he posted when the selectors announced the team.

Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup 😉😋..
