Ravichandran Ashwin is the first player on this list. The right-arm spinner is a regular player in the Test team and has played as many as 86 Test matches so far.

However, Ashwin has reached 35 years of age and many young spinners like Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahar, and Kuldeep Yadav are executing impressive performances to grab a spot in the Test squad. Hence, Ashwin might think of retiring from Tests after the IND vs ENG series.

Umesh Yadav is another player on this list. Umesh Yadav often gets a chance to play in the Test team but is not a regular member. He has played 62 Test matches so far and accounts for 158 wickets. Since Umesh Yadav is mostly overlooked for a place in the Test squad, he might opt to bid goodbye to his Test career after IND vs ENG series.

Cheteshwar Pujara is another player on this list. Pujara, who only represents the Indian team in the Test format, was dropped during the IND vs SL Test series. He has been battling poor batting form over the last 1 year.

In his absence, some youngsters like Hanuma Vijari and Shreyas Iyer have shown a lot of confidence and excellence in the middle order. Hence, if Pujara fails to come up with a good show against England, he might think of retiring from Tests.
