Shubman Gill: Who will be the ODI and Test captain of Team India after Rohit Sharma, this is a big question. Former fielding coach of Team India R Sridhar has made a big claim on this question, while discussions are also going on about Rahul, Pant, Surya, Gill. Sridhar has said that Shubman Gill is going to be the next captain of Team India. According to him, after Rohit's retirement, Shubman Gill will be given the captaincy of ODI and Test. Sridhar has also given the reason behind his argument.

Sridhar made a big claim about Gill

R Sridhar said in an interview that Shubman Gill is an all-format player and will be Rohit Sharma's successor. He will take over the captaincy in place of Rohit Sharma in Tests and ODIs. Sridhar hoped that after the 2027 World Cup, Shubman Gill will captain all three formats of Team India.

Sridhar's chances are also getting positive response in the recent decisions of BCCI. Gill has been made the ODI and T20 vice-captain of Team India before the Sri Lanka series. There are also reports of him being made the vice-captain in the Test series against Bangladesh. Let's see what happens next, but the current situation is pointing towards this.

Tough climb for Gill:

However, it is not so easy for Shubhman Gill to become the captain of Team India. For this, first of all he himself will have to perform consistently well on a personal basis, which is not possible in statistics at the moment. Especially in Test and T20 formats, he has failed to perform consistently well.

Many experts in the cricket world had also objected to making Gill the vice-captain of the T20 team. In fact, questions have always been raised on Gill's strike rate in T20. The current newly appointed head coach Gautam Gambhir himself had described Prithvi Shaw as a better T20 batsman than Gill in an interview last year. In such a situation, if Gill has to become the captain, then he will have to give his best and maintain it.
