New Delhi: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the Annual Player Contracts for the Team India Senior Men and Senior Women for the 2025–26 season covering the period from October 1 2025 to September 30 2026.

BCCI has removed the A+ category with mens players now divided into three groups - A B and C.

Indias stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have been moved from the A+ bracket to the B category in the annual central contracts list for the 2025–26 season.

Kohli and Rohit missing out on the top bracket is not entirely surprising as the BCCI traditionally places players who feature across all three formats in the highest category.
