The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) removed the 2026 T20 World Cup-winning captain, Suryakumar Yadav, unceremoniously from the team to appoint Shreyas Iyer as the captain.
According to a RevSportz report, Shubman Gill, the captain of Tests and ODIs of the Indian cricket team, was in contention to replace Yadav. According to the latest report, Shubman Gill had a strong case to emerge as the skipper for the third format too. Samson was also in the discussion.
“Sources in the know said that the captaincy choice was narrowed down to two players — Shreyas and Shubman — although someone in the team management opined that Sanju, too, has leadership potential. Eventually, the selectors decided to hand over the responsibility to Shreyas until the Asian Games in September-October,” it added further.
BCCI to try with a different skipper in the near future?
Will the board appoint a new skipper for the tour, for a brief stint? It'll be interesting to see.
A chapter far from being closed
A new cycle of T20 International will announce it beginning through India’s bilateral T20Is against Ireland. In the next couple of years, the Men in Blue will have to play multiple T20I contests, including the LA28 Olympics, and obviously the next T20 World Cup.
“But the selectors haven’t put the lid on Gill as yet. Far from it. The new cycle will have the LA28 Olympics apart from the next T20 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand two years down the line. A period of two years is a long time in sport, and things can change,” the report further mentions.
