I am not a part of the leadership group- Rahul Regarding the change in the team against New Zealand, Rahul said, I am not a part of the leadership group. I have been in this situation first when you have a chance to try players. But I do not know whether it will be in the Champions Trophy or not. We have got a single day break before the semi -finals. Right now there is a six -day break and we want all the players to get a chance. This is my idea, but I do not know tomorrow maybe something else.
India has reached the semi -finals India have already confirmed their place in the semi -finals by defeating Bangladesh in their first league match and Pakistan in the second league match. The first semi -finals will be played on 4 and the second on 5 March.
