In what has come as a shocker, the BCCI has dropped Shubman Gill from the squads for the India vs New Zealand T20Is and for the T20 World Cup 2026. Instead, Ishan Kishan has been a shocking inclusion, backed by his superlative performance in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT).
While Shubman Gill was initially forced into the T20I setup and his form didn’t inspire confidence as well. However, many expected Ajit Agarkar to name the same squad that played against South Africa. It didn’t happen as India have included Rinku Singh and Ishan Kishan. Meanwhile, finisher in Jitesh Sharma has missed out as well.
