Ravindra Jadeja excluded from India's ODI squad for New Zealand series

The <b>37-year-old</b> veteran all-rounder <b>Ravindra Jadeja</b> has been left out of India's squad for the upcoming <b>five-match ODI series</b> against New Zealand, signaling a potential shift in the team's white-ball strategy. Selectors are clearly prioritizing youth and current form over legacy, leaving senior players fighting an uphill battle to stay relevant in the 50-over format. With <b>Axar Patel</b> cementing his spot as the team's first-choice left-arm finger spinner, Jadeja's long-term future in ODI cricket hangs by a very thin thread.
