Amid speculations over Rohit Sharma's future, in an interesting conversation, it is claimed that Shubman Gill is likely to be the next superstar for the Indian National Cricket Team across the formats. This means Gill, who currently represents the team in Tests and ODIs, could feature in the T20Is as well.
While the growth may be visible significantly after a couple of years, by 2028. The year 2028 will be significant for Indian cricket, as it will be the year when two major sports events, the ICC T20 World Cup and the 2028 Olympics— will take place. Both tournaments will be in T20 format.
Shreyas Iyer needs to prove himself as the T20I captain for India
Out of seven games, two against Ireland and five against England, India suffered two defeats against the Ireland National Cricket Team, four against England, and one T20I against the Three Lions was called off due to rain. Iyer joined the team as the captain, replacing the 2026 T20 World Cup-winning captain Suryakumar Yadav, who, as a leader, guided the team for 42 wins and 8 defeats in only 52 matches, which made his win percentage around 82%.
Shubman Gill could replace Shreyas Iyer in the T20I format
However, in the end, it was Shreyas Iyer who got the opportunity. How long will he be in the position if the results are not close to expectations? That remains a doubt after the T20Is against Ireland and England subsequently.
In a bold claim, Kushan also mentioned that if Gill continues to perform well, then there will be chances to see Shubman Gill leading the national side in the 2028 T20 World Cup and 2028 LA Olympics.
