Ishan Kishan Snubbed Again: BCCI Excludes Superstar from Central Contract List
•Ishan Kishan has been excluded from the BCCI's central contract list for the 2025-26 season, despite strong domestic performance and T20 World Cup squad inclusion.
•BCCI announced 30 male and 21 female cricketers for annual contracts in categories A, B, and C.
•Senior superstars Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have been moved from the A+ category to the B category, as the A+ category has been abolished.
•Two-format captain Shubman Gill, Jasprit Bumrah, and Ravindra Jadeja are in Category A.
•The A+ category was abolished because most players previously in it now play only one or two formats, and the board did not want to keep only Bumrah in it.
