After Rohit Sharma retired as T20 World Cup-winning captain, Indian cricket faces a tough decision. Should they promote vice-captain Hardik Pandya or entrust premier batsman Suryakumar Yadav with leadership?
The decision must be made quickly as India gears up to face Sri Lanka in three T20I games later this month, marking the debut series for new coach Gautam Gambhir, the former India opener. Following the T20Is, India will play three ODIs.
Pandya’s pivotal role in India’s title victory against South Africa in Barbados last year makes him a strong contender.
However, concerns over his fitness record have brought Suryakumar Yadav into consideration. Gambhir’s opinion will also weigh heavily as BCCI officials and selectors deliberate on who will fill Rohit’s shoes.
