Axar Patel is the first player on this list. The left-arm spinner has been given a place in the Indian squad for the IND vs IRE T20I series. Axar Patel is a crucial spinner for India in the Tests at home. However, in T20Is, he has been not quite effective.

The left-arm off-spinner accounts for 39 wickets in 6 Tests at an average of 12.44. In T20Is, he accounts for 15 wickets in 18 games at an average of 29.47. Hence, he might opt to concentrate on the longer format and take a permanent break for the T20Is.

2. Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvneshwar Kumar is another player on this list. Kumar is a crucial pacer for India in the limited-overs format currently. However, many emerging bowlers have executed impressive performances in ODIs and T20I.

For instance, bowlers like Harshal Patel, Sharduk Thakur, and Deepak Chahar have shown impressive form in the national side. Moreover, many emerging pacers like Umran Malik, Arshdeep Singh, and Avesh Khan among others are also toiling hard to get into the national side.

Sanju Samson is the third player on this list. While Sanju Samson is a regular player in IPL, he is not picked in the national squad on the regular basis. The right-arm batsman is also overlooked as a primary wicketkeeper for the team.

While Rishabh Pant has grabbed the spot of primary wicketkeeper in the national side, Ishan Kishan is often picked as a secondary wicketkeeper. Hence, Sanju Samson does not always get a place in the national team and hence, he might think to retire from T20Is after IND vs IRE series.
