Kedar Jadhav has been an important part of the squad since 2017.

Kedar Jadhav will be playing his maiden World Cup in 2019. He has been a solution to India's middle order woes and has proved his capabilities as a No. 6 batsman time and again. He has been involved in a lot of successful run chases, the most famous one being where he scored a century alongside his skipper Virat Kohli to lift his team from 63-4 to finishing the chase.

Thought Jadhav is in good form, this is going to be the only World Cup that he might play. The reason is his age. He is already 34 years of age and the next World Cup will be held in 2023 by when Jadhav will be more than 38 years old.

Also, with emerging talent in India, players of his age will be replaced as their form will not remain the same and the batsmen and bowlers will have read his game and it would be easy to get the better of him.

Thus, it would be quite right to predict that this can be the last World Cup that Jadhav will be playing and we might not see him featuring in this prestigious tournament again.
