The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced its central contracts for the 2019-20 season.

While Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah make it to the grade A+ category, former India captain MS Dhoni's name seems to be missing.

The said contract is from the period of October 2019 to September 2020.

With speculations over the wicketkeeper-batsman's retirement doing the rounds, the decision to exclude him from the annual contracts seems like a final nail in the coffin.

While Dhoni has been excluded, it is the first instance for the likes of Navdeep Saini, Mayank Agarwal, Shreyas Iyer, Washinton Sundar and Deepak Chahar to be included in the list.

Here's how the division has been made:

Grade	Sr. No	Athletes

Grade	Sr. No	Athletes
