5 international players who never played the Champions Trophy

Langer was one of the finest Australian openers 

#4 Piyush Chawla

A part of the 2007 and 2011 World Cup, but never of Champions Trophy

As a 15-year old, Piyush Chawla represented India U-19, as well as Uttar Pradesh U-22, and that itself was a testament to the talent he possessed. He was a part of the victorious Indian side in the ICC T20 World Cup 2007 and the ICC World Cup 2011 but the Champions Trophy had no calling for him.

He became the talking point in the international circuit after getting the better of English batsman Kevin Pietersen in 2007. Chawla once bowled Shane Watson with a quicker one, which read 117 km/hr. One of the fastest deliveries by a spinner. Yet he was never seen in India’s Champions Trophy squad.
