There has been immense buzz surrounding the appointment of Indian Test skipper Shubman Gill in the role of India's captain or vice-captain for the shortest format of the game, ahead of the multi-team continental championship. However, Suryakumar's recovery has cut short Shubman's captaincy hopes.
Shubman Gill, the batter, last played for India in the shortest format back in the Sri Lanka series in 2024. But he was not part of India's T20I squad in the Bangladesh, South Africa, and England series, which followed the Sri Lanka series.
As of now, former Indian selector Devang Gandhi has named Shubman Gill as the most ideal player in the role of vice-captain for the Indian team going into the Asia Cup, since SKY is expected to return as the skipper.
Former Players have contrasting views on Shubman Gill's appointment
Several former players have also stepped up to name their playing XI and predict the squad for the Asia Cup 2025, since the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee is yet to announce the squads on the 19th or 20th of August.
Former spinner and Gill's teammate in KKR, Harbhajan Singh, has recognized Gill in his playing XI for the upcoming Asia Cup 2025, while Mohammed Kaif has left out Gill from his playing XI but has kept him in the squad.
Gautam Gambhir wants one captain across all formats
India currently has three different skippers in the three formats, with Suryakumar in T20s, Rohit Sharma in ODIs, and Shubman Gill in T20s. As a result of these remarks, it has been on the buzz that Gambhir is trying to bring in Shubman Gill as India's ODI skipper, replacing Rohit Sharma.
