A surprising news has come out from England. Rituraj Gaikwad, the youth opener of the Indian cricket team, has suddenly decided to return to India. He will no longer play for Yorkshire in county cricket. The County Club has given this information by issuing a statement.
Rituraj Gaikwad had signed a deal for Yorkshire to play the county championship and ODI Cup, but now he will not be able to debut in county cricket due to personal reasons. He has withdrawn his name from the tournament.
Let me tell you that Rituraj went on a tour of England for two unofficial Test matches against England Lions with Gaikwad India-A, but he did not get a chance to play in a single match. Then Gaikwad signed the deal with Yorkshire there. He was to play in both the county championship and the ODI Cup tournament. There was a five -match agreement between Gaikwad and Yorkshire. From July 22, Gaikwad was to play county cricket. However, he has suddenly decided to return to India.

Significantly, Rituraj Gaikwad has been walking away from cricket for about two months. He was out of the season between IPL 2025. He was hurt in the elbow, due to which he could play only five matches in IPL 2025. Chennai Super Kings captain Rituraj Gaikwad scored 122 runs in five matches of IPL 2025 at an average of 24.40. In the absence of Gaikwad, MS Dhoni captained the team. However, Chennai had a very poor performance. The team finished last on the points table. There is also news that Gaikwad’s relationship has deteriorated with Chennai Super Kings. The franchise can also remove them from the post of captaincy.
