Midway through the IPL, when Rohit Sharma, the Indian veteran, looked in very fine touch, he suddenly announced his retirement from the longest format of the game; as per reports, the BCCI had pressured Sharma to take this step ahead of the series in England.
After Virat Kohli followed Rohit's footsteps to retire from the longest format of the game, several cricket pundits as well as Indian management had openly urged him to stay; however, as per the latest revelations made by Rohit Juglan, the RevSportz reporter, the new Indian captain, Shubman Gill, had also talked with Kohli to convince him otherwise.
However, it has also been confirmed that Virat Kohli, the veteran Indian cricketer, by that time had already made up his mind to leave the longest format, a format he once loved the most.
Shubman Gill stepped into the big shoes of Virat Kohli in England
India had relatively younger players with a few debutants as well. Under such a scenario, someone had to fill the voids of the legendary cricketers; it was then that KL Rahul stepped in as a seasoned opener, while Gill slotted himself into the no. 4 spot.
Gill replaced Rohit in Tests and led by example
After being named the new and young skipper, the 25-year-old Haryana boy did not lose confidence; rather, the added responsibility seemed to have led to his rise in commanding form with the bat.
He led by example, as he not only scored a pile of runs but also led the team to crucial wins at Birmingham and then at The Oval, a series-levelling win that finally drew the series 2-2 in the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy.
