Wriddhiman, who will be 32 in less than a fortnight had kept wickets for more than 452 overs during the three Test matches against New Zealand. Add to it, two knocks of 50 plus in pressure situation at the Eden Gardens to win the Man of the Match award.
Wriddhiman will return to national duty when India host England in the five-match series starting next month.
It is expected that Wriddhiman will also not play the next Ranji game against Punjab from October 20-23 but is expected to play against Railways from October 27-30. That game will act as good match practice ahead of England series.
In Bengal cricketing circles, he is someone who is known to tell his club team Mohun Bagan's officials to book his early morning flight tickets so that he can reach in time for a crucial club tournament encounter after playing a Test match for India.
However even the Bengal team understands that Wriddhiman has finally settled in the Indian Test line-up and they have to learn to live without him, especially this season considering India will be playing 10 more Test matches at home.
